Upon meeting at a blockchain conference in San Francisco, Taiwanese entrepreneur Yao-Chieh (Jeff) Hu so impressed several Berkeley thought leaders in attendance that they invited him to become a research scholar in the UC Berkeley Blockchain Lab.
Taiwanese startup TuringChain offers educational institutions, students, and companies a new method of certification and authentication based on its Turing Certs blockchain solution.
Turing Certs is a product by the whitehat hackers and programmers behind Turing Chain that uses blockchain to create tamper-proof e-portfolios.
Yao-Chieh Hu, MEng ’20 (IEOR/FinTech), shares his journey to Berkeley Master of Engineering (MEng), from competing in the World Robotics Olympiad to working at J.P. Morgan to founding TuringCerts and TuringChain.
Zero fraud & zero paper solution that helps 80+ schools adopt tamper-proof Blockchain Credentials, including Berkeley Law.
SEBI Technologies, Inc. (SEBI Tech), a spin-off company of the Technological Institute of the Philippines (T.I.P.), has pioneered the development of blockchain-encrypted digital certificates in the Philippines.
Turing Certs issued the first blockchain diploma with National Tsinghua University, one of Taiwan's top-tier universities. With eyes set on the global market, Turing Certs is currently undergoing proof of concept (POC) with European University, meaning that they are testing product feasibility in the European market.
Turing Chain envisions a world completely without fake data. Evolving from HKUST and UC Berkeley, the company has launched a smart city network called Turing Certs for Credential Endorsements and Proof of Evidence. The company is currently focused on targeting the education and real estate markets.
Can you imagine a world where fake degrees, fake news, and fake deals are all gone and wiped out? “Blockchain” is leading mankind to a completely authentic future without any sham.
National Tsinghua University announced today that it will cooperate with Turing Chain to issue the first digital diploma in the country with blockchain encryption and seal. Even if hackers invade the system, they cannot tamper with forgery, which is inline with international standards.
Chinese Culture University signed a letter of intent for cooperation on the 26th with the start-up company “Turing Chain”. Through international standardized certificate system, 7000 Ph.D. and master students graduating this year can apply for a digital graduation certificate.
National Jinan University has recently cooperated with a multinational technology start-up company, Turing Chain. They have continuously integrated various certificate documents such as foreign student's study permit and admission notice into blockchain. Through the key technology of Turing Certs, the link of verifying certificates can be shortened to 15 seconds. At the same time, it can eliminate fake certificates, the high cost of verification, and the trouble of losing paper documents, which further increased the students' employment competitiveness and data protection.
Turing Chain utilizes blockchain technology in learning portfolios. At present, more than 30 colleges and universities and educational institutions have adopted Turing Certs to issue certificates. There are more than 3000 certificates issued cumulatively, enabling 3000 students to have an international anti-counterfeiting digital portfolios.
In order to assist Taiwan's start-ups to inject international energy, the SME Division of the Ministry of Economic Affairs has been promoting the “International Innovation and Entrepreneurship Training Camp”（hereinafter referred to as G Camp）since 2018, and has successfully cultivated more than 55 start-up teams to enter the global market, which accumulatively created NT$70 million business opportunities.
Affected by the pandemic, students cannot go to school to receive their graduation certificates. Therefore, National Taipei University of Business and Turing Chain Co., Ltd. announced the official adoption of blockchain certificates. As the second college in Taiwan to adopt blockchain electronic graduation certificates, they will start issuing electronic graduation certificates to class of 2020 from July 30th this year. It is estimated that the number of recipients will reach 2200 (including day and continuing education).
In response to the digitalization and internationalization of the 108 new syllabus learning portfolios, Hsinchu High School became the first high school to adopt blockchain certificates. The school signed a contract with the industry yesterday. Principal Lee, Ming-Chao said that in the future, students' blockchain certificates will digitize the entire high school learning portfolios, presenting the learning portfolios completely and avoid data loss.
In addition to Bitcoin, how can blockchain change our lives? Hu, Yao-Chieh invented “Turing Certs” with blockchain technology, which completely changed the certificate system in the system of education.
Digital portfolios are trending! In June this year, a start-up named “Turing Chain” with only 13 employees, an average age of 23, and established in just 3 years, was able to cooperate with more than 30 schools, foreign education, and government units issuing various blockchain encrypted certificates. How did they do it?
