TWEX® Carbon Ledger Among the Top 15 Finalists Worldwide at COP28UAE Tech Sprint
We are very pleased to announce that mintminds AG, together with trustwise.io ag, has been selected as one of the Top 15 finalists worldwide at the COP28UAE Tech Sprint in the blockchain category Problem Statement #2. This also places us among the Top 5 projects in this field – a fantastic recognition of our work on innovative solutions for providing verifiable data in climate protection initiatives.
The TWEX® Carbon Ledger is our response to the upcoming EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), which will take effect on January 1, 2026, for carbon-intensive imports into the EU. This system makes it possible to reduce the levy through verified and paid domestic CO₂ certificates and offset projects. In this way, a strong incentive is created for exporting countries to invest in climate protection projects, stimulate their economies, and at the same time actively combat climate change – a true win-win situation for both climate and economy.
The development of the TWEX® Carbon Ledger was only possible thanks to the passion, expertise, and innovative strength of the trustwise.io ag team. This close collaboration has been an exceptional experience – and the journey continues!
A warm congratulations goes to the three winners of the Tech Sprint:
ZERO13 for their automated, AI- and blockchain-powered international carbon exchange
Intensel Limited for their AI-based platform for climate risk analysis
Evercomm, winner in the IoT and sensor technology category
Our thanks also go to all the organizers of the #COP28UAE Tech Sprint, who selected us as finalists. We are proud of what we have achieved so far – and even more excited about what lies ahead.
