“Powered by Microsoft Azure and blockchain technology, this solution helps demonstrate our ability to enhance trust with our gaming partners, and strengthen security, transparency and payment accuracy through the power of blockchain. We’re thrilled to work with EY and our gaming partners to streamline this business,” said Brad Wright, partner, software engineering manager, Microsoft.
The new Blockchain solution will enable increased trust and transparency between industry players, which will reduce inefficiencies in the rights and royalties management process, and eliminate the need for costly manual reconciliation and partner reviews.
