Partisia is a global pioneer in Multiparty Computation (MPC) and advanced cryptographic enforced privacy. Partisia has sold commercial-grade MPC software solutions since 2008 with an initial focus on secure high-stake auctions used for trading energy and spectrum licenses.
Today Partisia’s MPC solutions are the base for a range of services from key management, data activation and statistics as well as a variety of bespoke applications such as DeFi, Voting and E-cash. The commercial activities include spinouts such as Sepior which was recently acquired by Blockdaemon in 2022 and Partisia Blockchain Foundation, a Swiss foundation that governs and launches a public blockchain built by Partisia.
The story of Partisia is all about commercialising advanced cryptography addressing weak and single points of failure across digital infrastructures and applications.
