9 Industries That Blockchain Has Infiltrated, and the Companies Leading the Charge

Companies across the world are exploring blockchain to solve a variety of business problems.

1. Healthcare: BurstIQ

BurstIQ is a healthcare platform that connects large data sets to partners spanning business, government and research organizations. The platform offers applications such as HealthID, an immutable record of an individual’s health history. It also functions as a database of healthcare information stored in the cloud and a global network that connects major healthcare players.

A combination of blockchain, big data and machine intelligence make BurstIQ possible. The company’s proprietary blockchain platform allows healthcare data to be managed and shared securely amongst providers, payers, life science companies and more, said CEO Frank Ricotta. It’s a permissioned network, meaning organizations only have access to the info they need, depending on their role in the healthcare system.

“I would predict a large proportion of health organizations will start utilizing some aspect of blockchain over the next 1-2 years,” Ricotta said. “I am most excited about blockchain enabling true person-centric medicine … with an open and configurable sharing model between all parties.”
