To enable businesses and organisations to capitalise on blockchain technology and benefit from the new opportunities it presents.
Parity is a blockchain developer that builds infrastructure for the next generation of the internet. The open-source nature of Parity helps charities, businesses, and fintech institutions make the most of Web 3.0.
Founded in 2015 by department-heading employees of Ethereum, Parity has already partnered with the likes of Watr to track ethical commodities to help African economies. Its partnership with Aventus will help enterprises make more of the technology they champion. Both partnerships are examples of how scalable, flexible and powerful Parity’s infrastructure could be for the future of the internet.
With a focus on decentralisation, Parity has attracted investors such as the Digital Currency Group and the Ethereum Foundation, showing how integral they are to next-gen web development. Whilst it has yet to seek funding beyond its seed funding and several grants, its partnerships with larger companies, as well as the success of its subsidiaries (such as Polkadot) will definitely help propel Parity into the future.
