The Innovation Network for Agribusiness of the National Rural Learning Service (Senar) promoted between the 20th and 22nd the Hackathon AgroUp at the International Coffee Week, at Expominas, in Belo Horizonte (MG). The event was held by Senar AgroUp, Federation of Agriculture and Livestock of the State of Minas Gerais (Faemg), through the Antonio Ernesto de Salvo Institute (Inaes), and Sebrae, and will work the technological needs of the coffee production chain pointed out by farmers in the region.
In groups of four to five people, registered professionals had 72 hours in a marathon day and night to find solutions that were tested by producers, cooperatives and industry representatives. HTMLCoin was present on the “Grão Forte” team developing solutions for coffee traceability and origin certification using the HTMLCoin Althash platform. The team has achieved important matches with major producers and technology companies linked to the sector.
“Our expectation was to serve the rural producer with auditable and incorruptible solutions for all coffee production tracking. With an increasingly demanding market, Blockchain certifications will be a trend in the sector. Although the first place was awarded to the team that developed a digital bank for the coffee grower, we consider the possibility of new contracts with producers using our platform an important victory. “ Affirms, Márcio Gandra — EVP of Innovation and Technology at HTMLCoin and CEO at HTMLBunker Exchange.
The next challenge will be on 08.09 and 10 December where the team will be in Santos Port developing solutions for the entire port structure, involving Blockchain and IoT.
