Tacans Partners With Provenance Tags, Concordium Blockchain Based Anti-Counterfeiting Solution

Tacans AG, a Switzerland-based web3 venture builder, has partnered with and invested in Provenance Tags, a blockchain-based counterfeit solution built on Concordium.

Earlier this week, Provenance Tags announced that it would integrate with the Concordium blockchain for its low cost, carbon neutral manufacturing and supply chain Track and Trace solution. Its aim is to combat the $1.7 trillion counterfeit and pirate goods market, of which counterfeit pharmaceuticals alone account for over $200 billion annually.

Provenance Tags is the first ever solution to integrate a blockchain with a new standard of advanced Near Field Communication Tags integrated within the products, providing optimal anti-counterfeiting and tamper-proof application. The solutions are end-to-end encrypted and have built-in Anti-counterfeiting product protection based on tamper-proof Tags that in combination with the Concordium blockchain offer immutability of changes tracked and provide verifiable proof of origin.
