The InterWork Alliance (IWA), merged with GBBC, is a non-profit, member-led organization creating platform-neutral specifications and trusted certification to define how digital token business processes can interwork regardless of location or market segment. Reported to the Board of Directors.By focusing on real-world projects, market requirements, and performance metrics, the IWA will define a tokenization taxonomy framework and interworking standards to drive business-level interoperability, multi-party interchange, and trust across applications and networks. My FAQ-What is a token?Something serving as an indication, proof, or expression of something else. Ex- Think Monopoly Boot or Race Car Token.A digital token is, very simply, a piece of data that stands in for another, more valuable piece of information. Tokens have virtually no value on their own - they are only useful because they represent something bigger. What is Tokenization? The process of turning something with value into a unique representation of that value. Tokenization is the process of removing sensitive data from your business systems by replacing it with an undecipherable token and storing the original data in a secure cloud data vault. Encrypted numbers can be decrypted with the appropriate key. Tokens, however, cannot be reversed, because there is no mathematical relationship between the token and its original number.What problem is it solving?To call out a few, Security, Trust, Speed, Authenticity.... IWA introduced the following use cases in the fall: Sustainability, DLT Security, and Global Trade & Supply Chain. FinTech Debt/Equity Project Launched in Q2 2021
