At the beginning of the summer, the European Blockchain Sandbox announced the 20 diverse, innovative use cases from across the EU/EEA who were selected to take part in the second cohort of dialogues. These use cases are spread across EU/EEA regions and represent a broad range of industry sectors and regulatory topics.

Over the past few months, the sandbox team have been engaging in conversation with relevant national and EU regulators and authorities to identify those best placed to join the cohort 2 dialogues. Following the success of the first cohort, the team have seen keen interest from regulators & authorities across the EU/EEA to be involved in this year’s discussions.

Reaching this milestone number even faster than during the first cohort matching period, we are delighted to announce that the following regulators/authorities have joined the second cohort of the European Blockchain Sandbox thus far.
