History

Context Labs, BV was founded in 2013 by Daniel Harple, a technology entrepreneur and internet pioneer in web streaming and VoIP.[1] With offices in Amsterdam, Netherlands and Cambridge, Massachusetts, the company was formed with the objective of extending research and development begun at MIT Sloan and the MIT Media Lab focusing on "innovation dynamics".[2][3][4]

Partnering with architectural design firm Rogers Partners in 2014, the company applied innovation dynamics methods to collaborate on the design for the Connect Kendall Square project.[5]

In March 2016, R. R. Donnelley & Sons announced it would partner with the company to integrate Context Labs blockchain enabled platform technology within RR Donnelley’s print-to-digital supply chain solutions.[3][6]

In June 2016, Context Labs announced that as a co-founding member, the company would provide operational, strategic, and technical guidance for the Open Music Initiative, a digital rights framework for the music industry.[1][7]

gollark: Yes, people are weird and want it for social status/scarcity/whatever rather than because it actually looks nice "inherently".
gollark: (also, I'm pretty sure IPFS doesn't guarantee that your file exists forever at no cost, someone has to be pinning it or viewing it)
gollark: It's probably irrelevant though, as I doubt *that* many people actually care about having the arbitrary ownership token™ in the first place and have the technical knowledge to check in much detail whether you actually do have it.
gollark: Smart contracts *have* been known to have complex bugs which are also completely impossible to patch after they've been released onto an unsuspecting public.
