The project 6G-ENABLERS-DLT, a UNICO I+D 6G research project successfully ended on the 31st of December 2024, after 36 months of work involving the SN team in R&D Spain.

6G-ENABLERS has addressed the challenges of multi-party collaboration within dynamic 6G environments, where operators and service providers frequently rely on third-party resources to fulfil their contractual obligations. The project main goal was the development of a decentralised Marketplace anchored on Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLTs) which served as a collaborative platform for operators, resource and service providers to advertise their offerings to potential consumers. This Marketplace acts as a club where participants can discover, trade, and access resources in a transparent and efficient manner.

Eviden has been responsable for developing a key element of the trusted 6G-ENABLERS Marketplace Platform, the Smart Contracts System.

Technologies like Smart Contracts are poised to play a significant role in shaping the creation of digital decentralized marketplaces, as they allow the execution of contracts in an automated way without manual and third-party intervention, increasing efficiency by cutting down administration processes and time and saving services cost while reducing the risk of errors and disputes.

In the scope of the 6G-ENABLERS-DTL Project, Smart Contracts were used for the transaction of Network Functions (xNF).
