We are pleased to announce that UK CBT has partnered with the Digital Pound Foundation (DPF).

UK CBT and the DPF will collaborate on areas of mutual interest with a focus on sharing knowledge and research pertaining to new forms of digital money, including stablecoins and CBDCs. Within that field, the two organisations share a particular focus on blockchain-related innovation and supporting the development of practical experimentation and development of use cases. As part of these efforts, UK CBT will join the DPF’s use case working group.
