As the innovation laboratory of the IDB Group, IDB Lab actively collaborates with multiple organizational units across the IDB group. Collaboration is at the core of IDB Lab’s essence and allows the IDB group to leverage in- house expertise in emerging technologies and to have direct access to the ecosystem of innovation in our region. A concrete example of a successful collaboration among multiple IDB group areas is IDB Lab’s LACChain flagship initiative. This initiative, under the leadership of the IDB Lab, has established the World largest enterprise blockchain infrastructure, serving as gateway for maximizing the use of WEb3 technologies.

LACChain stands as an IDB Lab digital asset, offering both infrastructure and technical expertise that have been capitalized on and can be capitalized further to improve IDB Lab’s productivity in delivering services with the highest standards and in achieving extraordinary impact.
