The Mission of the Academic Alliance is to foster a closer relationship among industry, academia and technology communities.
It takes a community of students, educators, developers, and industry leaders who research, design and craft technology solutions to bring blockchain to life.

benefits of membership
Cross-institutional collaboration is essential to effectively refine legal blockchain research on a global scale.
In 2017, Integra Ledger founded the Academic Alliance, a global forum for academic institutions to come together, share their high value work, highlight their progress, and discuss the challenges they have faced.
Opportunities with technology and the Internet appear to have no limit. Academia is often at the forefront of expanding our ever-evolving digital universe. As new ground is forged and the benefits of distributed ledger technology are enhanced, the academy has an opportunity to lead by example in ensuring that a scholarly body of literature supports research into global legal blockchain standards and protocols.
The Academic Alliance is a global network of non-profit colleges and universities committed to driving a blockchain research agenda forward.
If blockchain technology teaches us one all-important lesson, it’s that we are more successful when we work together.
