This is the second time I interviewed Sukesh Tedla, co-founder of Swedish startup Unbiased. Their mission is to fight fake news with a data marketplace, a search engine and a social platform. Their data marketplace is already available and beta and they will launch their search engine later this year.
We talked about how fake news prompted his idea of starting Unbiased, the advantages of combining blockchain with crowdsourcing and much more. Also, Sukesh and I are part of the Swedish Blockchain Association (SBA) and we talked about SBA's mission and the possible upcoming events for 2020.
