Blockchain and GS1 USWhat’s Blockchain Really All About?

Data sharing. Effective data sharing starts with GS1 unique identifiers and standardized data structures. You can’t enable technology without the right data. When you think of blockchain (technology) implementation, think of GS1 Standards (data) as foundational to the information sharing that blockchain can only enable, not substitute.

GS1 Standards support blockchain the same way that they have enabled other enterprise systems to work together for more than 45 years. They give supply chain partners the ability to share data among different information systems—so they can essentially speak the same language. Learn more at gs1us.org/visibility.
