…what’s so special about it?

10. Key Characteristic of Blockchain
…………….…………….…….
Blockchain is not useful for everything, but offers new possibilities for dealing with
digital values and processes  new business models
Distributed Ledger  no ‚single-point-of-failure‘
Immutable  trust-worthy source
Direct Transaction  no middle-man necessary

11. Distributed Ledger
…………….…………….…….
Comparison centralized, decentralized and distributed by Paul Baran, 1962

12. Immutable
…………….…………….…….
If the data of only one block is changed, the hash value is changed as well
and the tampered blockchain is detected
Block with data/transaction
#7u3...#1z3…#4p6...#6h3...
Cryptographic hash value of al prior blocks

13. Direct Transaction
…………….…………….…….
Blockchain technology replaces trust-giving middle men
Transaction with middle man (bank) Transaction with bitcoin

17. Land & Soil
…………….…………….…….
Land Registry, Negotiation, Splitting
no ‚single-point-of-failure‘
secure ownership information
big effort  authorities need to be include
bad scalability  big national differences

18. Planning & Design
…………….…………….…….
BIM, Collaboration, Intellectual Property
supports collaboration
transparent and reliable data source
regulation  authorities need to be include
interoperability is required

19. Construction & Refurbishment

Crowd Ownership, Supply Chain, Digital Twin
participation in real estate through tokens
transparent tracking of building information
regulation  need for guidelines and standards

20. Occupation Management & Use
…………….…………….…….
Management, Utility Cost, Lease, Admission Control
direct transaction, reduced middle men role
tracking of cost & automation of payment
incumbents  threat to business models
complex processes  no quick win

21. Demolition Recycling & Redevelopment
…………….…………….…….
Recycling Certificates
tracking material life cycle
information is not linked to only one entity

22. Example for a Use Case
…………….…………….…….
…that’s all nice, but where’s the use for my business…?

23. How to start?
…………….…………….…….
Use the existing process to set the frame for your idea
1. Time
2. Money
3. Goal
The process that makes ‘normal’ projects successful kills off innovation
 keep it short
 as little as possible
 learning is winning

24. Save
Easy
Strength
Vision
Existing and proven process – no deadline that kills you
Something easy to control – no external parties
Areas of strength for blockchain (transparency, shared)
Have a vision for blockchain (ecosystem)
Choose your battleground
…………….…………….…….
Learning is the biggest benefit of innovation

25. Internal Lease Contract
…………….…………….…….
blockchain solution
German

26. That’s it!
…………….…………….…….
…there's just one more thing…

27. How to Innovate an Industry that is Booming?
…………….…………….…….
- Be honest: Blockchain is no solution
- Innovation is the key and blockchain just a part of it
- Free-to-Fail-Culture has to be embraced
- Convergence of today’s innovation (AI, IoT, VR,…)
- Meetups vs. corporate training
