Technological Innovation and Corporate Governance

More specifically, our book looks at the importance of implementing blockchain technology in explaining corporate governance. Blockchain is a constantly evolving technology and a key element in the digital transformation process for most companies - it has been developed since 2008. Blockchain is primarily a technology for storing and transmitting information. This technology offers high standards of transparency and security, as it operates without a central control body. Blockchain represents a new application of cryptography and information technology to age-old problems of financial record-keeping, and has the potential to bring about profound changes in corporate governance. It is therefore important to understand this technology and its impact in order to properly identify relevant ideas for the adoption of blockchain in corporate governance.
