On this episode of the Scaleup Valley podcast: War Edition, Mike Dias speaks with Leanne Kemp, CEO of Everledger, about their 5 year anniversary of creating digital transparency technology for diamonds - which will be celebrated digitally during this time of COVID-19.

In this episode, I have a great chat with Leanne Kemp, the Founder and CEO of Everledger and Queensland Chief Entrepreneur. Leanne's company Everledger uses Blockchain technology to track high-value assets such as diamonds, art and wine with the aim of increasing transparency and trust with technology. As the Queensland Chief Entrepreneur, her role is to develop the state's startup ecosystem, attract investment and support job creation.You may remember Leanne from Episode 33, way back when we were called the Smart City Podcast. In that episode I interviewed her together with Louise Mercer, then Head of Everledger Australia, New Zealand, now Chief Experience Officer of Everledger and spoke to them both about blockchain, how they use it and why it's the next wave of the internet.In this episode, I asked Leanne about what has happened since she was last on the podcast, and she shared a bit about her work as Queensland's Chief Entrepreneur. We talked about the crucial differences between Smart Cities and Smart or Intelligent Communities, as Leanne calls them, and why the move toward community is so important. Leanne talked about the need to be expanding access to digital skills and technology for those that are otherwise likely to be left out, and her passion for circular economy concepts. We discussed the innovation Leanne is seeing from regional areas in Queensland, as well as having more intrapreneurs in government to be encouraging public-private partnerships. Leanne spoke about the ways we are good at collaborating but so far not so good at coordinating, and that coordination piece is the key to effective integration across disciplines, government, industries and academia. We finish our chat discussing the emerging trend of recognising that we've so far been too myopic in thinking and the need for systems leadership thinking, as well as the need for more and better public-private partnerships.Now I need to warn you that in recording this episode we had some tricky technical issues, so there is a bit of background noise in places and some moments where fragments of words drop out, so I apologise for that in advance. We've done the best we can to make it listenable and I really wanted to have Leanne on the podcast again because she has so much valuable insight into Smart Communities and in particular Smart Regions.As always, we hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as we enjoyed making it.Find the full show notes at: www.mysmart.communityConnect with Leanne on LinkedIn or Twitter @leanne_kempConnect with me via email: hello@mysmart.communityConnect with My Smart Community via LinkedIn or TwitterThe Smart Community Podcast is produced by Perk Digital.

Title: Tectonic Plates Shifting on World Commitment to A Circular Economy Leanne Kemp, CEO Everledger While it is true that blockchain technology is in an embryonic state, world leaders are still seriously evaluating the core provenance of their products, rethinking their value chains of trust, and seeking greater efficiencies in their manufacturing, operations, and distribution. This year especially, we have seen a lot of real progress. The circular economy has been at the heart of global trade discussions.    Tech companies and global consumer brands are innovating products and labeling to put a transparent price tag on waste, but also to convert waste into wealth again and again in their supply chains… or even in the supply chains of other companies in other industries. In my interview with Leanne Kemp, Founder and CEO of Everledger, she shared with me how companies are re-thinking their products, re-thinking their supply chains, and even re-thinking how they can recycle resources among companion supply chains outside their industries to optimize the circularity of their products. Leanne is in the center of that Loop conversation on what a circular world looks like in the future. Let’s tune in to hear what she has to say.

Managers in enterprises or start-up founders all have to go through a framework in order to unlock the necessary investment for their blockchain projects. Understanding that process and what it entails is key. Areiel Wolanow is managing director of Finserv Experts, expert advisor to the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Blockchain amongst many other blockchain advisory and non-exec positions. In this podcast he takes us through the commonalities between successful and failed blockchain projects before building a framework for requesting investment for a blockchain project.   What is blockchain? Blockchain is an enabling technology. It allows multiple separate legal parties to share a single version of data and keep that data in synch between themselves. Thus, removing the need to reconcile different versions of data between themselves.   Journey to blockchain In early 2014, Areiel was running IBM’s financial services practice for East Africa based out of Nairobi. 90% of the Ethiopian commodity exchange is with coffee. The challenge that they faced was that the Fair Trade Association was threatening to remove accreditation across the country, because of the level of corruption. Virtually all coffee farmers in Ethiopia were calling themselves Fair Trade with only a tiny minority having actually gone through the process. The Ethiopian commodity exchange had asked IBM if they could do an IOT based provenance solution. The idea was to give where farmers, who had gone through the Fair Trade process, the ability to purchase Fair Trade RFID tags to put in their coffee bags. Whilst this solution would help solve the problem from the farm side, the problem remerged when the coffee reached the roaster and ultimately the market floor. The Fair Trade coffee would get mixed with other coffees thus making the ability to trace provenance very difficult and easily gamed. It became clear that considering these challenges that blockchain could be an excellent solution for nailing down the provenance, tracking the coffee throughout the various transactions all the way to the consumer scanning a QR code on their coffee bag and seeing their coffees journey.   Blockchain – addressing the “world’s oldest business requirement” The above coffee example, or Everledger with diamonds, demonstrate how provenance is a powerful use case for blockchain. Blockchain is an innovation that addresses what Areiel refers to as the “World’s oldest business requirement”. This is a requirement that goes back to 4,000 BC when humans were designing the very first contracts. At that time Sumerians would record future commitments (eg. use of an Ox for bushels of grains) on a “bulla” a hollow ball-like clay that contained tokens that identified the quantity and types of goods being recorded. This ball would provide an independent verifiable tokenised representation of a contract. A bulla was at that time as transformative as the internet is today. However, as the bulla becoming increasingly adopted it became difficult for individuals to remember how many tokens where inside each balls. This set an upper limit on scale of the bulla system. The next invention was creating indentations on the outside of the bulla to represent the number of tokens on the inside. These indentations eventually took the form of symbols to represent not just the number of tokens but the different type of tokens. Finally, it was realised that the symbols had supplanted the tokens themselves. As long as both parties where present when the symbols were being drawn and that they were accurate, there wasn’t any more a need for tokens. Ultimately the move came from this clay ball to the use of cuneiform script, the oldest form of writing, which developed out of the need to model future commitments. Cuneiform writing become an independently verifiable record of that commitment, now known as a ledger. A thousand years later cuneiform script would eventually be used...

Holo-REA Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4MujZoqZx70 In this episode we interviewed Sam, known online as Pospi. He is one of the lead developers from the infamous Holo REA project. Pospi (or Sam) is a career web and games developer who has built everything from safety training simulations to national news websites and weather data systems. Since 2016 he has worked in the blockchain industry, and created many of the supply chain tracking systems at Everledger which is supply chains for diamonds before moving on to ConsenSys, where he contributed to a range of Ethereum-based enterprise applications and pitched a venture aiming to make conscious consumerism more conscious. His interest in blockchain stems from a deep desire to create a more ethical planet, and this same desire drew him towards the world of "resource accounting" and attempts to create economic models which focus on what's real, rather than operating through the lens of money. His current work in the Holochain ecosystem is another step on this journey. https://wiki.p2pfoundation.net/Holo-REA

This is a bonus podcast as Insureblocks was invited to attend the All Party Parliamentary Group on Blockchain at the House of Parliament on Monday the 18th of March. It was a fascinating session hosted by MP Damien Moore with opening remarks from MP and Minister for the Digital and Creative Industries Margot James and blockchain advocate MEP Emma McClarkin. Presentations were made by IOTA on Global Trade, by Oracle on the food supply chain, Everledger on the diamond supply chain and finally Lloyd’s of London, on behalf of the London Market Target Operating Model (LMTOM) program -  Insurance, Claims and transaction settlement. We interviewed a number of the delegates by asking them what they were hoping to achieve at this event and in their opinion how the UK government could support blockchain. We would like to thank the following participants for participating to this “Pulse” episode, in order of appearance: Daniel McCoy Andrade, head of business development at Photocert Emma McClarkin, Member of the European Parliament, East Midlands Jens Munch Lund-Nielsen, Head of Global Trade & Supply Chains at IOTA Foundation Vikram Kimyani, Cloud solution architect at Oracle Najib Rehman, Data Strategy Lead at FarmaTrust Areiel Wolanow– Managing Director of Finserv Experts Manreet Nijjar, Co- founder & CEO, Truu That’s it, this concludes this episode.

In this week's episode of the ArtTactic Podcast, first host Adam Green talks about the origins of the ArtTactic Podcast and what motivated him to launch it in 2009. Then, he speaks with Leanne Kemp, founder and CEO of Everledger, a technology company that uses blockchain technology to track the provenance of diamonds and other valuable items. Leanne talks about the history of Everledger and discusses its success bringing a blockchain platform to the diamond industry. Then, she reveals what kind of blockchain services she will offer the art world and how different it is from the diamond industry. Also, Leanne explains what it will take for a blockchain solution to become prolific in the art world. Finally, she shares how a widely used blockchain ecosystem in the art world could benefit the industry.

In this episode, Ben and Jay connect with Vanessa Grellet, who serves as Executive Director at ConsenSys with a strong focus on the Blockchain for Social Impact Coalition, to explore initiatives and trends in blockchain and data management that are shaping the future of social good. She highlights four key sectors for social good that are most impacted by blockchain and recounts trends that emerged at the Blockchain for Social Impact Conference. Vanessa sheds light on what it takes to empower people who have been displaced or disenfranchised by governments; the value of cutting out middlemen; and the work of Robert Opp, Director, Office of Innovation and Change Management, United Nations World Food Programme. Jay calls out Bono, aka “the worst thing that has happened to Africa.” Vanessa suggests that in spite of peoples’ best intentions, “creating wealth and property is not going to solve issues of poverty...” We discuss Ethereum’s roots in social good, and why the media is obsessed with the crypto valuations over impact and causes. Vanessa talks about the “Decentralized Impact Incubator” where companies compete for $50k in prize money. She gives a shout out to MakerDAO, Dether, Everledger and Democracy Earth, and gets excited about taking “the coalition” on a roadshow starting in Africa and Asia, to ensure people on the ground are learning about the value of blockchain technology.

Some years ago I was backpacking with my sons in Colorado. In our party was a young man who was preparing for a mountain race; he was in particularly good shape. As we hiked I noticed his walk was casual and non-strenuous; often times walking with his hands in his pockets. At the end of a particularly long day of hiking on this trip I asked him about his apparent ease of walking while the rest of us were gasping for air. He stated that part of his "secret" was the weight of his pack. I tried it out...it was only 10 pounds, while the rest of us were carrying 40 - 50 pound packs. He smiled and walked away. Using technology to our advantage for investing can lighten our investment packs, so to speak. Of particular interest is using algorithms and block chain. Block Chain of course is being used in crypto currencies like Bitcoin, which we wont' go into here. Multiple firms are testing out algorithmic trading with Block Chain. I recently read a scenario from a Deloitte article, which I will reference here. It states: "Picture a trade floor five years in the future. The robotic trader managing one of the gas desks is about to execute a physical natural gas trade with an industrial customer. One of the robot’s trading algorithms scans available market interest and optimises its search for the best deal to meet the customer’s volume and tenor requirements for a given period. Once the robot’s proposed deal terms are approved by the customer, the trade is executed and recorded on the blockchain. The deal terms are automatically confirmed and nomination information is recorded on the blockchain and available to the pipeline shipping the gas. As gas flows throughout the month, physical settlement occurs daily with payment initiated immediately. All activity added to the blockchain is readily available to the seller, buyer, pipeline and bank. Physical title of the gas is also conveyed directly via the blockchain." [https://www2.deloitte.com/uk/en/pages/energy-and-resources/articles/blockchain-applications-in-energy-trading.html] And another article, from the Financial Times states: "Blockchain, a distributed ledger — the underlying technology for virtual currencies such as bitcoin — is a useful ‘middleware’ for slashing such bureaucracy. It records transactions in sequential blocks, creating encrypted data that can be shared between several parties through the supply chain, updating them instantly without risk of fraud. "Start-ups and small firms are also experimenting. London-based Everledger uses blockchain to ‘track and protect’ valuable assets like diamonds across the life cycle, creating a digital thumbprint used by participants along the supply chain to verify authenticity, while BlockVerify is tackling counterfeiting in industries including pharmaceuticals and electronics." https://www.ft.com/content/a36399fa-a927-11e7-ab66-21cc87a2edde That article also went further to discussed how IBM is working with companies to apply block chain in international distributed goods trading as well. So, what does that mean to you and to me? Much of this is experimental; but we need to be apprised. I believe that with our focus should be on making investment decisions in a manner that protects our capital rather than focusing on how much we are going to make. By nature if we do that, it means we do all that we can to identify the highest probability opportunities; which reduces the risk. An auditable ledger like Blockchain reduces the risk for these organizations. One of the things that reduced the risk for this experienced back-packer is that he had loaded the lightest weight essentials into his backpack. So, get rid of the mental baggage that you are searching for big, fast money and rather focus on creating a list of the market conditions that MUST exist in order for you to make an investment decision. Thanks for joining...until next time...trade with your Brain!

Welcome to this week's Insider show, where Simon hosts a panel on the future of banking, featuring Marko Wenthin, co-founder of solarisBank; Leanne Kemp, founder and CEO at Everledger; and Elena Alfaro, Global Head of Data at BBVA. Before getting stuck in to the detail, our expert panel discuss the current situation in banking. What are the biggest challenges and why hasn't banking kept up with the pace of technological change and the change in customer behaviour? How are banks learning to respond to the pace of change, and why shouldn't we just focus on digitising but being truly digital? The panel also explores the evolution of the customer journey and the importance of understanding the customer context. And Elena discusses how data might unlock a truly personalised process. Leanne delves into the importance of understanding your processes and your customers, and Marko talks about his approach to customer data. And we discuss whether machines can ever replace people in customer interactions, or whether customers will always favour a human touch. Finally, what does the future hold for banking? What might the customer relationship look like, and who will own it? And how will we be using data and analytics? Listen in to find out! We hope you're enjoying the show - don't forget to subscribe so you never miss an episode, and we'd also love it if you could leave us a review on iTunes! Get in touch at podcasts@11fs.com or on Twitter @FintechInsiders and follow us on Facebook. Special Guests: Elena Alfaro, Leanne Kemp, and Marko Wenthin.

As is the case with most luxury goods, the diamond industry is faced with the issues of theft, fraud, and counterfeiting. Illegal activity is present at every level of the supply chain, which collectively costs the industry and its insurers hundreds of millions of dollars each year. In recent years, international treaties and regulation have been put in place in an attempt to combat illegal activity, but criminals are most often a step ahead. Leanne Kemp, CEO of Everledger, joins us to explain how her company is using advanced geological techniques, and blockchains, to bring more traceability to the diamond industry. Everledger, whose clients include many of the largest insurance companies, builds software which allows for a diamond’s unique characteristics to be hashed and notarized in the blockchain. Hence, a stone’s provenance, and the trail of ownership can be traced, therefore limiting the opportunities for fraud and making it difficult for stolen diamonds to re-enter the market. Topics covered in this episode: Leanne’s background as a technologist A broad overview of the diamond industry A look at the diamond supply chain What roles banks and insurance companies play in the supply chain How diamonds are uniquely fingerprinted The Kimberly process and other regulations Everledger’s technology stack and business model Other sectors which can also benefit from increased traceability Episode links: Everledger Kimberley Process This episode is hosted by Meher Roy and Sébastien Couture.
