🚀 Exciting News! I'm thrilled to announce the merger of Sphereon and Northern Block to form 4sure Technology Solutions, marking a significant step forward in the digital credentials landscape.

Here's to new beginnings and bold futures!

What do you all think about this?

We actually did some work in Japan 2-3 years ago, but it was too early. We did a project for the Japanese Fisheries department (through a company called Landbrains) and were part of an accelerator program (SBC Osaka) and did a PoC with Sakura internet for a digital hankyu.
But too early

Yes. Nice to meet. Just reach out if you have questions.
