Siemens, German multinational conglomerate, is looking to branch out and adopt blockchain technology for carsharing with Siemens Mobility. Head of cybersecurity and blockchain, Andreas Kind, states that blockchain technology could provide a solution to facilitate user experience in regards to car rentals and fueling cards. A statement from Kinds follows, "It's not only inconvenient for the drivers, it's inconvenient for the companies because fueling cards get stolen [and] they get sold on the internet [...] That's an example where, in an industrial context, you need something, a technology, that brings together different participants that [don't] fully trust each other [...] That's exactly where blockchain can add value."
