The IMDEA Software Institute and Nomadic Labs have signed a collaboration agreement to conduct research at the highest level in the Institute’s research areas with the aim of contributing to the development of the Tezos ecosystem.

The Director General of Research and Technological Innovation of the Madrid Regional Government, María Luisa Castaño, and the Deputy Director of Research, Bárbara Fernández-Revuelta, attended the official signing ceremony between both institutions.

The director of the IMDEA Software Institute, Manuel Carro, the president of Nomadic Labs, Jérôme Chailloux, and the scientific director of Nomadic Labs, Michel Mauny, signed the collaboration agreement that implies that the Institute becomes a strategic partner of the Tezos ecosystem. “The Tezos project has forged numerous scientific collaborations at the best French and international level, as demonstrated by this collaboration with the IMDEA Software Institute. It is very important for us to prepare for the future of blockchain technologies, especially Tezos, by supporting open scientific research, the results of which will be public and therefore benefit the whole community. We are particularly pleased with the signing of this agreement between Nomadic Labs and IMDEA, which strengthens our ties with IMDEA and provides a framework for our collaboration”, said Michel Mauny.

Manuel Carro stated that, “the agreement with Nomadic Labs for collaboration in the Tezos environment, the first to be signed in Spain, is an unparallel opportunity to contribute to a technology that is having difficulties to overestimate impact on society”.
