In March 2017, Ethereum received a boost by the announcement of the formation of the Ethereum Enterprise Alliance.  

‘The Alliance connects Fortune 500 enterprises, startups, academics, and technology vendors with Ethereum subject matter experts. Together, we will learn from and build upon the only smart contract supporting blockchain currently running in real-world production – Ethereum – to define enterprise-grade software capable of handling the most complex, highly demanding applications at the speed of business.’ 

The impressive list of launch members is set out below.
