Organisational factors that influence the Blockchain adoption in Ireland: A study by J. E. Cairnes School of Business & Economics in association with the Blockchain Association of Ireland

Abstract

Research carried out at NUI Galway has found a 40% blockchain adoption rate among Irish enterprises to date. The study investigated why implementation in Ireland is relatively low, and proposes recommendations to increase blockchain awareness and adoption that can provide opportunities not only for economic growth but also create a new foundation for how Irish organisations and government conduct business.
