NSLab Expands into Africa by Donating Blockchain-Based Infrastructure System
Post summarized by durumis AI
- NSLab is donating its blockchain-based voting system, 'PureVoting', to Nigeria and pursuing collaborations to establish real estate transaction and medical data management systems.
- PureVoting will be donated to the Nigerian Institute of Estate Surveyors and Valuers and the Federal University of Technology Owerri, with plans to explore the development of a real estate transaction system leveraging PureContract and PureCertificate.
- NSLab plans to expand its presence in the African market and contribute to economic revitalization through its blockchain-based infrastructure systems.
NS lab., Inc. (NS lab., Inc.), led by CEO Dongseong Kim, announced its expansion into the African market, primarily through its Nigeria branch. Mr. Vitalis Brinuel of Polly Nwoke, NS lab.'s partner company in Nigeria, will be responsible for implementing blockchain-based public service projects across Africa, with a focus on Nigeria. He is also scheduled to conduct donation ceremonies and collaborations with various African nations and organizations.
In relation to this, Dongseong Kim, CEO of NS lab., was invited to the 54th Nigerian Institution of Estate Surveyors and Valuers (NIESV) held from April 16th to 18th, where he delivered a lecture titled ‘Blockchain for Effective Land and Estate Management in Nigeria and Africa’. Furthermore, NS lab. conducted a donation ceremony and signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with NIESV and the Federal University of Technology Owerri (FUTO) located in Owerri, Imo State, Nigeria. FUTO has approximately 20,000 students. Through this, NS lab. donated its blockchain-based voting system, ‘Pure Voting’, to both institutions. NS lab. is also preparing to donate similar systems to neighboring countries like Uganda and Cameroon.
Pure Voting is a hybrid voting system that combines the advantages of both online and offline voting methods. It utilizes beacons and NFC technologies to support voting for a limited number of people within a specific area. By leveraging blockchain, it enhances the efficiency, reliability, and security of the voting process. NS lab. provides Pure Voting services to various academic institutions, organizations, and governments globally.
*Offline Voting: A voting method where a designated polling station is established in a physical location, and voters cast their votes using paper ballots or electronic devices.
*Online Voting: A voting method conducted over the internet using mobile devices or PCs.
Through this donation ceremony and MOU, FUTO and NIESV have agreed to collaborate with NS lab. on incorporating blockchain technology into Nigeria's social infrastructure. The initial focus will be on evaluating the implementation of ‘Pure Contract’ and ‘Pure Certificate’ for real estate transaction contracts in Nigeria. Furthermore, they plan to conduct research on medical data sharing for the development of a blockchain-based organ transplantation system.
Pure Contract is a blockchain-based standardized electronic contract system designed for real estate transactions in the Nigerian market. It utilizes NS lab.'s offline transaction technology, making it suitable for use in environments without network connectivity. Pure Certificate is a service that utilizes blockchain to verify the authenticity of real estate-related documents, preventing tampering. It offers a range of certificate issuance services that can be applied to various applications. Notably, NIESV praised NS lab.'s offline transaction technology as the optimal localized solution for Nigeria's unstable power supply, asserting that it maximizes efficiency in related processes.
Furthermore, NS lab. has decided to establish a local office in Nigeria and advance its business operations based on this visit. NS lab. also reached an agreement with the International Valuation Standards Council (IVSC), led by Nicholas Talbot, and its council members to strengthen various ICT collaborations centered on blockchain-based systems.
CEO Dongseong Kim stated, "Through this visit to Nigeria, we anticipate that NS lab.'s products will contribute to the foundation of Nigeria's and Africa's economic revitalization by providing systems that support a diverse range of infrastructure using blockchain technology." He added, "We will continue to actively donate and provide NS lab.'s services to the African market."
