The Enterprise Ethereum Alliance (EEA) was formed earlier this year, seeking to evolve
Ethereum so that is can serve as an enterprise-grade technology. EEA’s research and
development is focused on privacy, confidentiality, scalability, and security. EEA is also
investigating hybrid architectures that span both permissioned and public Ethereum networks as
well as industry specific application layer working groups.

Julio Faura, chairman of EEA and head of blockchain r&d at Santander expressed, “The
enthusiasm around EEA is remarkable. Our new members come from varying industries such
as pharma, mobile, banking, automotive, management consulting, and hardware as well as the
startup community driving innovation. It’s great to see everyone come together and build the
next generation of our economy on Ethereum blockchain solutions.”
EEA will collectively develop industry standards and facilitate open source collaboration with its
member base and is open to any members of the Ethereum community who wish to participate.
This collaborative framework will enable the mass adoption at a depth and breadth otherwise
unachievable in individual corporate silos and provide insight to the future of scalability, privacy,
and confidentiality of the public Ethereum permissionless network.
