Case studies

Strategy that moved organisations forward

Financial Services

Web3 strategy for a mid-market investment bank

Challenge

A UK investment bank's board wanted to understand whether digital assets represented a strategic opportunity or an existential threat — and what, if anything, to do about it.

Approach

Alphaveta delivered a 10-week strategy engagement: competitive landscape analysis across 14 peer institutions, client demand research across three segments, regulatory scenario modelling, and a prioritised opportunity matrix covering tokenised securities, digital custody, and DeFi treasury management.

Outcome

Board approved a three-year digital assets strategy with a £4M initial investment. Two pilot programmes launched within six months of strategy sign-off. The bank's digital assets team grew from 0 to 8 people in 18 months.

Patient data sovereignty roadmap for an NHS trust

Challenge

An NHS trust wanted to explore whether blockchain-based patient consent management could reduce data governance overhead and improve patient trust — without disrupting clinical workflows.

Approach

We conducted a 6-week feasibility study covering technical architecture options, GDPR and NHS data standards compliance, integration complexity with existing EPR systems, and a patient and clinician sentiment study across three sites.

Outcome

Feasibility study confirmed a viable path using a permissioned chain with off-chain PII storage. Trust secured NHSX innovation funding based on the Alphaveta report. Pilot design completed and approved for 2024 rollout.
