We look forward to continuing to work together in the future.”

Banks and insurance companies are among the targeted clientele.

“We’re thrilled to support the Ethereum Foundation’s Devcon2, which will bring together pioneers in Blockchain from all over the world,” said Marley Gray, Director of Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Business Development, Microsoft. “The Ethereum blockchain is powerful, and we’re looking forward to continuing the collaborative relationship with the Ethereum community, together bringing the best of blockchain technology to our cloud platform, Microsoft Azure.”
