EY launches blockchain privacy sandbox to test zero-knowledge proof smart contracts

EY has launched the EY Blockchain Privacy Sandbox, a web-based development environment enabling organisations to experiment with privacy-preserving smart contracts on public Ethereum Virtual Machine-compatible blockchains. The sandbox uses Starlight, an open-source zero-knowledge proof compiler originally developed by EY and now in the public domain. The platform allows developers to transform standard Solidity smart contracts into privacy-preserving applications without requiring local setup, lowering technical barriers to zero-knowledge technology adoption. It includes sample projects that can be explored and modified to accelerate proof-of-concept development. Grand View Research projects the global zero-knowledge proof market will reach approximately $7.6 billion by 2033. The sandbox is designed for experimentation and validation, helping businesses assess feasibility before broader enterprise integration. The platform is now available via request.

Unilever and UK government back Kenya-India waste tech partnership to automate recycling

Kenyan waste management enterprise TakaTaka Ni Mali and India-based TrashCon have partnered to modernise Kenya's circular economy infrastructure through decentralised waste segregation technology. The collaboration was facilitated by TRANSFORM, an impact accelerator led by Unilever, the UK Government's FCDO, and EY. The partnership addresses implementation challenges of Kenya's Sustainable Waste Management Act (2022), which requires household waste separation. TrashCon's TrashBot technology automatically separates wet organic material from dry recyclables, creating safer conditions for waste workers whilst improving recovery rates. Urban waste collection in Kenya currently reaches only 20-30%. TakaTaka Ni Mali will serve as local reseller for TrashBot, supporting installation and maintenance whilst deploying its Ecomali digital traceability platform. The first TrashBot model will be showcased at Kenya International Investment Conference from 25-27 March, with two additional machines planned.
