Blockchain at UA

The Center for Blockchain Excellence at the Sam M. Walton College of Business

About the Center

 

We believe that future professionals with skills and knowledge in blockchain-enabled technologies and digital ecosystems will transform businesses and society into more efficient, sustainable and profitable networks.

The mission of the Blockchain Center of Excellence is to make the Sam M. Walton College of Business a premier academic leader in research and education of blockchain-enabled technologies and digital ecosystems.

The Blockchain Center of Excellence (BCoE) was established in May of 2018 within the Department of Information Systems in the Sam M. Walton College of Business at the University of Arkansas.

 

Technology is important to our future…We are not sure where this will lead us but with the help of IBM, ArcBest, Tyson Foods, J.B. Hunt and Walmart this institution can research, advocate and support innovation for new applications that will benefit the entire state.
