Steve Wozniak, or as many call him, The Woz, has recently joined an energy efficiency company that develops its product on blockchain. The company is based in Malta.
Wozniak announced that he has joined the so called EFFORCE project – a project that allows investors to back up energy efficiency startups around the globe and even become co-founders, which Wozniak did. The announcement was made during an event in Malta on July 18th, 2019.
Wozniak has also expressed his support for saving the environment and looking for ways to reduce the negative impact on it. One of the ways is to be more efficient with energy. The project aims to bring about money savings to the energy market.
In addition, Wozniak is also a huge supporter of blockchain. According to him, blockchain can help reduce energy consumption without negatively impacting consumers. Another factor that is definitely an advantage is the willingness and help of the government of Malta to develop blockchain-based projects.
Back in 2018, the Woz became a co-founder of EQUI Global – “a technology focused venture capital fund which combines the conventional principles of investing with a blockchain ‘back end’ that allows value to be realised and then traded in the open market through the EquiToken.”
