BSS is working to facilitate Omani Innovation within the Blockchain space and by creating this channel, it enables the banking industry to directly reach such innovations.
As Dr. Tahhan succinctly explained “The aim of our initiative is innovation. We are working towards defining new use cases for blockchain to undergo proof of concepts with them, mature them and then share them globally.”
It is worth noting that BSS is a government entity that was established as an initiative from the State General Reserve Fund earlier this year with the prime objective of setting up the needed infrastructure in Oman to create a healthy Blockchain environment.
