Blockchain is the technology to create the Business network platform across organization and countries. Enterprise Blockchain is suitable to handle business transaction which requires high security based on each contract
Current Centralized Platform
（Payment etc）
Public Blockchain
(Bitcoin etc ）
Enterprise Blockchain
(DLT: Distributed Ledger
Technology)
Feat
ure
�TTP (Trusted Third Party）
�Secure, High performance
�Many TTP involved for cross
boarder, cross industry
�Miners Community operates
�Security(information all
shared) Concern
�There is issue on Scalability
�Specific Consortium operates
�No Security Concern
�High Scalability

Challenges for Blockchain: Creating Blockchain Business Network and Governance Model is difficult since private sector tends to pursues their own profit and this is really “Winner takes all” business

Like Wallmart, player which
has strong power against
other value chain players (like
farmers, processors) can take
this pattern
Financial industry tends to
take this patternFurther involvement

Challenges for AI: Due to its complexity, a lot of cases are still on Poc phase. Involvement of key players i.e. public sectors and enhancement of AI literacy is essential to move forward

1. Data Gathering:
especially when it
becomes personal
information(like medical
record), it is difficult to
get shared without the
help of public sector.
2. AI literacy: AI requires
continuous training of
computer, biz user
needs to know how train
AI as well as understand
the meaning of output
data. Some people are
too much expectations

1. There are emerging technologies (Blockchain
/AI/IOT) having high potential to achieve SDGs
2. However, each tech is being verified one by one,
not unleashing the full potential with integration
3. Moving forward, choose specific SDG (i.e.
Education) and form cross-vertical team from
each tech layer to accelarate achieving SDG goal
4. Facilitator / Consultant / Integrator plays an
important role for execution� Facilitator: United Nations, NPOs , Government
