- The Twin Foundation wants to optimize nothing less than the processes of world trade, with systems based on blockchain, transparent and therefore trusting systems.
- Iota ensures safe international transactions that reduce trading obstacles and promote economic growth.
The Twin Foundation was founded with the aim of eliminating inefficiencies in global trade. Supported by influential organizations such as the World Economic Forum (WEF), Trademark Africa, the Institute of Global Change (Institutegc) and supported by the IOTA blockchain, the foundation is intended to change the way in which companies are involved in international trade.
By providing an open source platform that focuses on transparency and trust, the Twin Foundation wants to release trillion dollars of unused economic value and at the same time solve stubborn problems cross-border transactions.
We are proud to power a new era of global trade!@TwinGlobalOrg is tackling real trade inefficiencies—unlocking trillions for the global economy with open-source tech for all. Backed by @wef, @InstituteGC, @TradeMarkAfricaand powered by #IOTA. Watch the launch day… https://t.co/iTOgLd2duC

One of the greatest obstacles in global trade is the lack of trust in the data, documents and systems that support international transactions. Dealers are often confronted with uncertainties when they act across borders with unknown partners. For example, a company in Nigeria may hesitate to trust the trade documents of a partner in Algeria or South Africa.
This lack of trust, which is primarily due to concerns about the authenticity and integrity of records, represents a great obstacle to the growth of global trade.
The Twin Foundation has set itself the task of managing these challenges by offering a source-open, blockchain-based platform that strengthens trust in cross-border transactions. By guaranteeing secure, transparent and verifiable systems for data and document exchange, the Handel Processes Foundation wants to rationalize and improve efficiency at a global level.
The joint approach of the initiative, in which governments such as the Kenya are also involved, promises significant advantages for companies across Africa and beyond.
IOTAS blockchain should solve the problem
The basis of the TWIN Foundation’s approach is the blockchain technology of IOTA, which is known for its scalability, security and transparency. The open source infrastructure of IOTA enables the creation of a decentralized platform, on which trading participants can exchange documents and data. In contrast to conventional systems that rely on centralized intermediaries, IOTA technology ensures that all trading transactions are transparent, safe and fault-proof.
The DLT (Distributed-Ledger Technology) from IOTA solves the central problems of global trade by offering a system in which trade documents and data can be replaced with checked authenticity. This decentralization minimizes the risks of fraud, data manipulation and delays and ensures that everyone involved – whether companies or governments – have access to a trustworthy and transparent system.
Authenticity creates trust and efficiency
The collaboration of the Twin Foundation with important organizations such as Trademark Africa and the Institute of Global Change reflects the common knowledge that a safe commercial ecosystem is necessary. These partnerships are intended to strengthen the trust between companies and governments by offering a common platform to which all actors involved in cross -border trade can easily access and use them.
It is expected that IOTA will drive the introduction of blockchain technology in the emerging countries, where the inefficiencies in retail are most pronounced. The possibility of exchanging certified data and documents can significantly reduce trade barriers, promote economic growth and open up new opportunities for companies and states alike.
