Cygnet collaborates with Bitbank for IBISA project

29 March 2018 By admin

Cygnet collaborates with Bitbank for IBISA project:


Bitbank, a Blockchain Fintech firm based in Luxembourg has chosen Cygnet to be their consulting and development partner for their ambitious and breakthrough IBISA project. Realizing the true ground-breaking potential of Blockchain, Bitbank has made it a vision to build more efficient and fair business models to empower individuals. Actively engaged in working with companies, government organizations and nonprofits, their focus remains on building decentralized applications based on Blockchain.

Together with Bitbank, Cygnet will contribute to serve farmers across the world and solve major agricultural issues by utilizing Blockchain technology. Unpredicted events, weather and resource/knowledge limitations due to poverty often lead to extreme financial distress for farmers as well as insurers. Farmers often face uncertain crop incomes, whereas Insurers also face losses due to small insurance contracts that could ensure protection with small premium but with high overheads and low profit.

IBISA uses innovative Blockchain solutions to address persistent limitations due to traditional insurance practices, it is emphasizing on “Mutual risk sharing with low cost and fast damage pay-out.” This is achieved by leveraging the low cost of information, intrinsic property of the internet and Blockchain to bring risk sharing to a large and un-insured population worldwide. This partnership between Bitbank and Cygnet Infotech for IBISA will help in building more innovative and efficient business models that empower smallholder farmers to become competitive agri-entrepreneurs.

Blockchain experts and development teams from Cygnet will assist in creating state-of-the-art technology and architectural parts of innovative solutions. Cygnet is honored to be a key technology partner of IBISA project alongside the European Space Agency (ESA), Grant Thornton, Microsoft among others.
