It was during his time in 2009 at HM Treasury in the UK Government and later as Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) for the Department of Health that Gilbert Verdian first realised the full potential of blockchain: he saw how the technology could advance patient care by providing interoperability across multiple networks and datasets. It was in 2015 when he founded the Blockchain ISO Standard TC307 which has become an international effort of 53 countries working together to standarise the technology. To Gilbert, the implications for other sectors suddenly became instantly clear. And immensely exciting.

Thus, Overledger was born: a technology which allows organisations to benefit from blockchain through a single, simple-to-use gateway that eliminates the need to integrate multiple individual blockchain gateways, saving time and money.

Today, Gilbert Verdian and the team at Quant Network continue to develop Overledger, the world’s first blockchain operating system. It is a technology which is at the core of the company’s vision and mission.
