The call for projects was part of RNP's 2023 Blockchain R&D Program, a CT-Blockchain initiative to expand its technological prospecting capacity by funding short-term projects to carry out studies and proof of concept on this topic. It is expected that the results of the projects can serve as input for discussions on future investments in R&D and for the evolution of the services offered by RNP.
