Decentralized privacy-focused network Nillion has partnered with Bahraini telecom operator stc Bahrain.
As per the announcement, the collaboration marks the deep integration of Nillion’s blind computing privacy technology in real-world Web2 scenarios, aiming to drive the development of privacy solutions in the Middle East region.
In the first phase of the collaboration, stc Bahrain will deploy nodes on Nillion’s blind computing network, PETnet. As a decentralized privacy platform, PETnet aims to ensure the security of data storage and the privacy of data processing using advanced privacy-enhancing technologies such as multi-party computation. As the first telecom partner to run nodes on the Nillion network, stc Bahrain will not only bring stronger decentralization and security to PETnet.
Meanwhile, Nillion will join the stc Bahrain Web3 Launchpad program as a Pearling Path partner. stc Bahrain will leverage Nillion’s blind computing network to develop scalable use cases. By combining Nillion’s advanced secure computing solutions with stc Bahrain’s robust telecom infrastructure and Bahrain’s data embassy legal framework, Nillion aims to set new standards for high-value data management and protection for global users, not only in the Web3 scenario but also in real-world Web2 applications.
Nillion was founded by former Uber founding engineer Conrad Whelan, dedicated to enabling the secure storage, transmission, and processing of high-value sensitive data in an end-to-end encrypted state. Using its Orchestration Layer, Nadia language compiler, and dual-layer network architecture, Nillion empowers developers to easily build privacy applications without the need to understand privacy-enhancing technologies (PETs), while also ensuring decentralization, thus empowering the development of the privacy application ecosystem and providing strong support for data application ecosystems, AI, data markets, privacy , medical analytics, and other application scenarios.
stc Bahrain partners with Nirvana Labs
Earlier this year, the Bahraini telco operator, partnered with Nirvana Labs,providers of bare metal cloud infrastructure for web3 companies to foster the growth and development of blockchain technologies across the Gulf region. The partnership is now live, with Nirvana offering web3 hosting for node operations in stc Bahrain’s data centre.
It also partnered with Allora Network, an AI decentralized network through its Web3 Launchpad Program under the Pearling Path initiative.
