Blockchain: The Insights You Need from Harvard Business Review

Blockchain arrived buried under cryptocurrency noise, and this volume separates the technology from the speculation around it. Part of Harvard Business Review's Insights You Need series, it offers a foundational introduction followed by case studies showing where distributed ledgers already do real work: tracing every link in a supply chain, replacing paper-based verification, and holding customer data more securely. The emphasis stays on decisions a company has to make now, including which initiatives to start, what to expect of them, and how to judge whether the technology fits the problem at hand. A closer look: • Introductory explanation followed by documented company case studies • Supply chain traceability and record-keeping applications • Separates business uses of blockchain from cryptocurrency speculation • Part of the Insights You Need from Harvard Business Review series For executives, strategists, technology managers and business students.
