About Elena

Elena Mechik completed her studies at Touro College Berlin in 2008 with a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration. In 2011 she graduated in Industrial Engineering and Management from the Technical University of Berlin. In 2014 she completed an advanced training in development economics at the London School of Economics. Since 2011, Elena has been researching ways to mitigate the illegal deforestation of tropical forests. In this context, she learned about blockchain technology. This offers the opportunity to achieve value-added and supply chain transparency for wood and wood products. Elena received her doctorate in 2017 and subsequently became co-founder and COO of INHUBBER UG. INHUBBER UG develops contract management software based on blockchain technology in combination with KI. As a use case Elena develops the possibility to achieve a contractual transparency of wood products along the value chain and thus contributes to the reduction of illegal logging.
