 Throughout the course so far, you have been exposed to many technology concepts and industries. A key thread among the industries is how technical innovation helps organizations innovate, integrate, and thrive. Many organizations start by addressing problems by creating a business use. A business will create a use case in the following manner:

• They identify a business problem. 
• Next, they identify all the shortcoming in that business .
• The organization will look for business and technical solutions that can solve the focused problem. 
• The organization will then identify the cost associated with the business problem. 
• The organization then creates a plan based on all the collective factors addressed in the previous bullets mentioned. 

Blockchain technology adoption is one area that organizations are now actively looking at as the next horizon in securitization and record keeping management. The image below shows the business segmentation that we most often break Blockchain down into from a potential business perspective

  • You must explain – the what, how, why for each. 
• What is the cost associated with the innovation?
• What do you foresee the outcome to be should the organization implement the blockchain technology innovation?
• Are there any technical challenges/roadblocks that the organization should be aware of that may prevent a successful implementation?
• Provide a clear and convincing closing to why this solution is the best way forward for the organization.
