As Blockchain is all the more approached as a prominent facilitator for adopting
4th Industrial Revolution ideas across various industries, it is evident that
Logistics is one of the sectors of the economy that is presented as the best
candidates for such implementations. In this study, we explore both how
academia and the business world approach this potential, the implementation
of Blockchain technologies in Logistics as part of the whole 4th Industrial
Revolution platform. After the necessary introductory chapter, where scope,
purpose, methodologies etc. are discussed, in the second chapter we lay down
the basic theory behind the three key concepts explored in this study. In
chapters three and four, then, we conduct the actual research, first in the
available scientific literature, through an SLR and a classical literature review,
and then in terms of case studies from the real world. In the fifth and final
chapter we discuss the extend at which the potential of Blockchain technologies
implemented in Logistics has been tried out and how future research can further
the subject.
