B4HOPES
Blockchain solution for tracking HOP production and Communicating Social impact in a beer social agrifood production.
Scheda del progetto
The B4HOPeS project uses blockchain technology to create a system capable of tracking and certifying the hop supply chain in beer production. The goal is to transparently and immutably record all phases, from the cultivation of hops to the sale of beer. The cultivation of hops, in all its phases, will be followed by the inmates of the Alessandria prison; all data is tracked on the blockchain, allowing consumers to know a story of inclusion and social impact. The project also includes the testing of a new pilot plant at the Trunasse Brewery to improve the sensory characteristics of the beer produced.

Develop new high-level skills in the blockchain field and make them available to a new project with a high social impact, combining sustainable agriculture and prisoner rehabilitation based on an economic sustainability model that can be replicated in other contexts.
The B4HOPeS project is innovative because it combines advanced technology, social inclusion and experimentation in the specific context of beer production, showing that beer production is not just about the quality of the product, but also contributes to a positive social impact.
End consumers who choose to purchase products derived from this project can feel involved in an ethical choice, supporting socially responsible practices and contributing to the reintegration of prisoners into society.
