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.
Fliggs Mobile is a digital-first, Web3-enabled mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) that aims to bridge the gap between telecommunications and financial services. Its core service is providing flexible, no-contract mobile plans that run on T-Mobile's nationwide 5G network. These plans, managed entirely through the Fliggs Mobile app, include features such as eSIM activation, international roaming passes, and data boosters.
It also features Web3 integration features including a non-custodial digital wallet built into the app. This wallet enables a loyalty program that rewards users with monthly cashback in Bitcoin or USDC on their service fees.
Fliggs Mobile is built on Hedera's distributed ledger technology, which is used to issue a Decentralised ID (DID) to every user upon activation. This gives customers sovereign control over their digital identity and personal data. The non-custodial wallet also leverages Hedera for its security and functionality, enabling secure cryptocurrency payments and the management of rewards. This integration is supported by The Hashgraph Association, which has provided both funding and technical support to pioneer this convergence of telecom services and decentralised technology.

PowerSynch is a digital platform developed by American PowerNet, the first independent company to be granted a power marketer license by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). It specializes in providing direct access to wholesale electricity markets for commercial and industrial clients.
The PowerSynch platform functions as a marketplace for sustainable energy, connecting large-scale buyers directly with renewable energy generators. Its primary service is to facilitate transparent and efficient online transactions for wholesale power, bundled with Renewable Energy Credits (RECs). The platform enables buyers to competitively bid for wholesale blocks of power, offering flexible, short-duration Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs). For sellers, PowerSynch provides a streamlined process to offer their renewable energy to a larger market with the assurance of payment upon delivery. The platform manages the physical delivery of power and provides audit-ready data for environmental reporting.
PowerSynch leverages the Hedera network to ensure the transparency and verifiability of its transactions. The use of Hedera is intended to increase trust in the renewable energy market, prevent double-counting of RECs, and provide a secure, auditable trail for all transactions.
