Bitland’s commitment to Mauritius extends well beyond land-title registration efforts. WISekey, a cyber security platform based in Geneva, is currently directing its attention toward establishing a Center of Excellence in Mauritius to train local talented tech enthusiasts in blockchain technology and blockchain-based solutions for government operations. To this end, Bitland will be providing vital educational assistance to WISekey’s project while also serving as an accessible example of the kind of practical and world-changing applications blockchain technology is primed to support.

Bitland and Mauritius share a passion for innovative thinking and a drive for making large-scale visions reality. Following the Mauritian Smart City model, Bitland Global is planning to develop and implement a pilot system of integrated databases stored and managed on the blockchain with the objective of digitizing a vast quantity of daily applications and transactions and streamlining them into one easy-to-use application that will be made available to private citizens, government offices, and businesses alike.
