What a small exporter goes through to get financing for a single shipment:
Agree terms with a buyer.
Approach a bank.
Gather documents - manually.
Wait for the bank to verify them - manually.
Hope nothing is missing.
Only 39% of businesses can access trade finance on reasonable terms.
For smaller companies, that drops to 35%.
Today, we officially marked the inaugural flag-off of the Nigeria–East and Southern Africa Air Cargo Corridor in partnership with @FlyRwandAir , providing direct, affordable access for Nigerian businesses to Rwanda, Zimbabwe, and Zambia, alongside expanded options into Kenya and South Africa.
Thank you to the Minister of Aviation, Festus Keyamo SAN (@fkeyamo), @CustomsNG, and all collaborating agencies for making this possible. Under the Renewed Hope Agenda, Made-in-Nigeria is driving trade, export, and shared prosperity.

There’s a small but positive 🇬🇧 #TWIN update in the latest @ashfordphealth (Sevington Inland Border Facility) operational update included in the pack for the last cabinet meeting of @AshfordCouncil in April. https://t.co/6orA1G9L6J #IOTA ⬇️
The result of the #IOTA spam test on Devnet! 📊
Maybe there was a bottleneck somewhere, especially when multiple people are spamming. Either way, those are some decent stats! 💪
Thanks everyone for a taking the time! 🙏
For every 1% reduction in global trade costs, global incomes go up by $40 billion.
The upside of fixing trade infrastructure is enormous.

No amount of treaties or standards can solve the trust problem in cross-border trade.
Trust between countries can't be negotiated.
It has to be built into the infrastructure.
That's what a permissionless global single source of truth actually means.
[ICYMI] IOTA and Sui are now connected! 🚀 LiquidLink's Liquor Bridge MVP is live on testnet, unlocking seamless cross-chain possibilities with LayerZero tech. Here's what this means for the future of IOTA and Sui 👇
Track operations across fragmented databases & delegate permissions directly to digital wallets.
This is what IOTA Audit Trails provides - business records that cross every boundary
It is highly interesting to observe how Siemens Healthineers is becoming increasingly visible in connection with IOTA and Digital Twin technology. Is the goal here to seamlessly track and secure Siemens medical data and processes? #IOTA#TWIN
La red de IOTA fue un componente clave del proyecto desarrollado junto a INCUCAI.
Utilizamos IOTA para gestionar DIDs y Credenciales Verificables, creando una infraestructura abierta que combina interoperabilidad, seguridad y privacidad mediante un modelo Dual DID.
Además, gracias a sus capacidades de notarización, pudimos llevar la trazabilidad de la información a un siguiente nivel, aportando evidencia verificable sobre la integridad y el recorrido de los datos a lo largo del proceso.
Un ejemplo concreto de cómo la identidad descentralizada puede generar impacto real.

Desde Extrimian, día a día descubrimos y demostramos el valor que genera la información verificable dentro de los ecosistemas digitales.
Casos concretos como el de salud en INCUCAI, donde se digitalizan y gestionan procesos críticos como las listas de espera y los trasplantes, o el de la educación en la Universidad Autónoma de Guerrero (UAGro), con la emisión de títulos digitales e identidades estudiantiles verificables, muestran cómo diferentes sectores comienzan a comprender el verdadero potencial de este paradigma.
La capacidad de verificar información de manera confiable, segura y descentralizada se está convirtiendo en el punto de partida de cualquier proceso de transformación digital.
En un mundo donde la incertidumbre sobre la autenticidad de la información crece constantemente, contar con mecanismos que permitan validar datos, credenciales e identidades deja de ser una ventaja tecnológica para convertirse en una necesidad estratégica.
La confianza ya no puede depender de intermediarios, procesos manuales o validaciones posteriores. Debe estar incorporada desde el origen de la información. Por eso creemos que las credenciales verificables y la identidad digital constituyen la infraestructura de confianza sobre la cual se construirán los próximos ecosistemas digitales, habilitando nuevas experiencias, reduciendo fricciones y generando mayor eficiencia entre organizaciones, ciudadanos y usuarios.

@incucaioficial promotes, regulates, coordinates and supervises the activities of donation and transplantation of organs, tissues and cells in Argentina 🇦🇷. It’s an agency operated by the Argentinian government’s Ministry of Heath.
Another new research paper to flag, this time on electricity market economics by @ImperialDyson 🇬🇧 . What's interesting about this one? It's funded by @iota. https://t.co/AWtHYg1BnE #IOTA
45% of UK firms say customs procedures and documentation are the biggest barrier to exporting.
Ahead of tariffs.
Ahead of regulation.
The paperwork is the problem.
