VisionTo develop a model and implement a prototype of a distributed ledger for trustworthy, secure and scalable sharing of medical data using blokchain technology as a preparation for commercialization and spinning-out of a new start-up company.Key Objectives• Identify participating institutions and establish contacts with potential partners• Analyse the need for shared data and formulate requirements• Specify a typical scenario for communication in generation, sharing and using clinical data• Formulate a value proposition for addressing the needs of the organisations involved• Perform an initial market research of the proposed solution• Validate the proposed solution against the market segments identifiedMain areas of focus• Organisations, needs for external collaborations and role within the healthcare system• Clinical data, operations and trust with respect to collaborative medical information processing• Information, models and data access rights with respect to security and privacy of the information• Costs, prices and potential market for collaborative solutions based on blockchain technologiesInnovation• Based on trustworthy sharing of the information rather than data exchange• Uses homomorphic encryption rather than data anonymization• Utilizes open Catalyst framework for extendibility and scalability without IPR restrictions• Relies on the expert support from UK/Ireland Blockchain Group and the vendor of Catalyst Framework
