The ATARCA consortium represents transdisciplinary research and innovation at its finest.

Each member of our consortia brings the skills and knowledge needed to meet the challenges of this project: Aalto as a leading university in design, business, engineering and technology, Streamr as an experienced early stage commercialiser of token technology, Novact with experience in innovative social experiments (including REC), Demos as a think tank with expertise in research and policy impact, and Qbit as innovators in social economies. The balance of academic, SME and NGO partners provide an ideal environment for the creativity, knowledge and practical skills needed to meet the challenges raised by ATARCA.
