Nimit Sawhney is the co-founder and CEO of Voatz, a platform built on the idea that voting should be easy, secure, and accessible for everyone. Voatz is looking to revolutionize the way the world votes. The app gives users access to a voting system that is completely functional on tablets and smartphones by combining elements of remote identity proofing, biometrics, and blockchain technology. End-to-end verifiable and accessible remote voting is now an option thanks to this technology.
Nimit's areas of expertise span mobile software development, cryptocurrency development, cybersecurity, and public policy. He co-founded Voatz in 2015 and the platform has since been used to run over 117 elections at the state, county, university, and organizational levels, serving over 2.2M voters.
Voting on the blockchain offers an alternative to many of the shortfalls of traditional voting systems, including lack of security systems, which can result in electoral fraud. Nimit Sawhney proposes blockchain voting as a necessary next step in electoral processes globally, to ensure secure and transparent elections..
In this episode, Dside and Nimit discuss voter access, identity proofing, the security of blockchain voting, and the possibility of its global adoption in the near future.
