“Skyscape’s industry-leading platform, unique connectivity and assurance credentials, combined with Credits’ blockchain technology create a competitive advantage for us as the first cloud provider with a blockchain offering for the UK public sector.”

Simon Hansford, CEO at Skyscape Cloud Services, commented on the partnership:
