ConsentCheq, a service by PrivacyCheq, is a consent management platform that helps businesses comply with global privacy regulations such as GDPR, CCPA, and COPPA. Since its launch in 2016, the company has focused on providing a "single source of truth" for user consent, enabling enterprises to manage and honor user privacy preferences in real-time across all their systems.
The core of ConsentCheq's service is a full-stack transparency and consent management solution. It provides tools for businesses to deliver clear privacy notices and to capture, log, and manage user consent for data collection and processing. A key feature is the "Consent Dashboard," a centralised interface where users can view and control their privacy settings for any business that uses the ConsentCheq service. The platform also offers "Consentive," an incentive-based system where consumers can be rewarded with micropayments for granting consent, which is designed to increase opt-in rates for data processing.
ConsentCheq's connection to the Hedera network is central to its "Consentive" service. The platform uses the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) to create a high-throughput, low-cost, and auditable log of consent verification and payment events. Under privacy laws, advertising networks must verify consumer consent each time they process or track them.

Arkhia is an enterprise-grade Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) provider founded in 2022. It was established to bridge the gap between shared public network resources, which can be limited, and the complex, resource-intensive private infrastructure that large-scale applications require.
Arkhia's services are specifically tailored for the Hedera network. The platform offers a suite of tools designed to streamline the development process, including dedicated RPC services, a powerful REST API for interacting with the Hedera Mirror Node, and specialized tools like Watchtower for real-time data streaming and WorkBench for analyzing on-chain data. By offering a high-availability, low-latency environment, Arkhia enables developers to focus on building their applications without the operational overhead of managing their own infrastructure.
The connection between Arkhia and Hedera is fundamental; Arkhia's entire platform is built to support and enhance development on the Hedera public ledger. Leveraging a partnership with Google Cloud, Arkhia provides enterprise-level reliability and performance, ensuring that applications built on its infrastructure can scale to meet high demand.
BlockScience, founded in 2017, is an R&D, engineering, and analytics firm that specializes in the design and analysis of complex systems. With an interdisciplinary team of engineers, data scientists, and social scientists, the company applies advanced mathematical and computational engineering to model, simulate, and design resilient socio-technical systems for a diverse range of clients, including for-profit companies, non-profits, and government organizations.
The firm's core service is providing a rigorous, data-driven approach to designing and validating economic and governance mechanisms. A key product in their toolkit is cadCAD, an open-source Python-based modeling framework they developed. This tool allows for the creation of "digital twins" of complex systems, enabling clients to simulate and test new business models, market designs, or automated smart contract logic before deployment. This approach is used to analyse system safety, resilience, and sustainability under various conditions.
BlockScience has a direct collaboration with Hedera and the Hedera Foundation to design and model innovative market mechanisms for renewable energy and other environmental assets. This work includes the development of Automated Regression Market Makers (ARMMs), a novel price discovery mechanism for semi-fungible assets like energy credits.
