• Identify and explain the theories and technologies that were presented in the course, including their key terminology, underlying assumptions, and how they relate to one another.
• Demonstrate how the theories and technologies that were presented in the course were applied in the process of developing the prescribed blockchain project.
• Exhibit the ability to apply blockchain technology through a written assignment that describes the blockchain innovation project and a tangible prototype that illustrates it.
• Evaluate the blockchain innovation project through theory-based critical assessment and discuss the results including how to mitigate the prevailing challenges as well as how to move ahead with the development of the underlying project.

The course is expected to run as a collaboration between CBS and University of Copenhagen.   

Blockchain, mostly known as the backbone technology behind Bitcoin, is one of the hottest and most intriguing technologies currently in the market. Similar to the impact of the internet, blockchain has the potential to truly disrupt multiple industries by making transactions and processes more democratic, secure, transparent, and efficient. Entrepreneurs, startup companies, investors, global organizations, and governments have all identified blockchain as a revolutionary technology. Building on this vision, students will explore how the capabilities and the underlying mechanism of blockchain can be applied to generate economic and social value. This course highlights central topics of blockchain and distributed ledger technologies. It is designed to familiarize students with the foundations of blockchain technology and its key application areas. In addition, the course seeks to provide hands-on experience in applying blockchain technology to developing novel insights and turning them into prototypes.
