Linfinity: A Blockchain Enabler Makes Blockchain Useful for SMEs

Linfinity organised a roundtable conference themed “Explore the Future of Blockchain Technology” in Singapore. The roundtable gathered industry leaders and entrepreneurs across different sectors to discuss on the topic that how Blockchain technology can empower SMEs. Teo Ser Luck, a former minister of state in Singapore and now the chairman of Nufin Data, was also invited as special guest.

SMEs: A Huge Market

Linfinity CEO Anndy Lian hosted the roundtable discussion. “In Singapore, 99% of the Enterprises are SMEs, contributing 49% of nominal value aded. For supply chain industry, SMEs are also facing the pain points that traditional MNCs are trying to tackle, including the efficiency and transparency of goods and value transaction, which Blockchain solutions can step into.” Anndy said, “This is a huge market, which we all can’t afford to lose.”

The Singapore-based fashion brands and marketplaces presented during the discussions—Pinc, Lovefreya.co, and Feso Asia—expressed that they want to know how Blockchain can help local designer brands. A persistent problem that they have been facing is having their designs copied, and they hope Blockchain can help mitigate profit losses from this problem.

Earlier on during Blockspace Asia, Linfinity signed Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) with Pinc, Lovefreya.co, and Feso Asia. Linfinity, a pioneer in using Blockchain in supply chain management, will provide these three companies with technological support in supply chain management using Blockchain-based solutions.

SMEs: The First Beneficiaries from Blockchain

“There is no doubt that Blockchain is bringing new energy into traditional industry, and it will be revolutionary. But its value depends on how we use it.”  Mr. Teo said during the discussion. “The flexibility and great adaptability will make SMEs one of the first beneficiaries from Blockchain.”

Mr. Teo shared his experience on how he helped start-ups and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) while at the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) and as minister of state for trade and industry. Since stepping down as minister of state for manpower, Mr. Teo has been involved in several ventures ranging from education and sports to fintech.

“It is necessary for SMEs to look at the current trends of their industry and have a sense of where it is going in the future. There is always an urgent need for innovation, and when it comes, we should grasp it and see how it can restructure the business models and fill in the gaps.”

This roundtable also invited guests from Quest Ventures, Blockvital, BlockConnectors and Sharechain to share their insights on how the Blockchain technologies can empower SMEs in the region. Mr. Bill Teng, Chairman of Ping An Securities also highlighted the fact that if we explore Blockchain thoroughly with SMEs, SMEs will most likely to benefit a lot and it will surely help in their business productivity and efficiency.

Linfinity:中小企将成为区块链的首批受益者

Linfinity在新加坡举办了一场主题为“探索区块链技术未来”的圆桌会议。会议聚集了不同行业的领导者和企业家,共同探讨区块链技术如何助力中小企业。新加坡前人力部及贸工部部长、新加坡国会议员张思乐先生,也被邀请出席并担任特邀嘉宾。

中小企业:巨大的潜在市场

Linfinity CEO Anndy Lian主持了圆桌讨论会,他说:“在新加坡,99%的企业是中小企业,占总体经济增长值的49%。对于供应链行业而言,中小企业正面临着与传统跨国公司同样的难题——商品的流转效率低和透明度不公开。Anndy表示,这是一个巨大的市场,我们牢牢抓住,依托区块链技术让“难题”不攻自破。

在会议的讨论环节,新加坡时尚品牌——Pinc,Lovefreya.co和FesoAsia的负责人纷纷表示,他们希望借助区块链技术杜绝服装设计行业中抄袭乱象,从而减少因此问题而带来的利润损失。

在前不久才结束的Blockspace Asia峰会上,Linfinity已与Pinc,Lovefreya.co和FesoAsia签署了战略合作协议。Linfinity的一系列区块链防伪溯源,将为这三家公司的供应链管理提供技术支持。

中小企业:将是区块链的首批受益者

“毫无疑问,区块链正在为传统产业带来新的活力,它将具有史无前例的革命性。但它的价值取决于我们如何使用它”。张思乐先生在讨论中说:“灵活性和良好的适应性将使中小企业成为区块链的首批受益者。”

同时,张思乐先生分享了他在新加坡人力部以及担任贸易和工业部长期间,如何帮助初创企业和中小企业实现快速成长的宝贵经验。“中小企业有必要了解各自行业的当前趋势,并知晓未来的发展方向。产业总是迫切需要创新,当新生的事物到来时,我们应该抓住它,看看它如何重塑商业模式并填补空白”。

此外,圆桌会议还邀请来自 Quest Ventures,Blockvital,BlockConnectors 和 Sharechain的嘉宾出席发言。平安证券执行董事滕伟先生也在与会中强调,中小企业或许将成为区块链商业化红利的最大受益者,区块链技术也必将加持他们的事业取得成功。
