The ease with which a credential or academic certificate can be forged, thanks to the evolution of graphic design software and the ease of sharing that document on social networks or adding it to a curriculum vitae is forcing academic institutions to generate increasingly bureaucratic and expensive processes in order to ensure the reliability of the documents they issue. In this research paper we propose a business case for the construction of a Platform based on Blockchain for issuing digital certificates that will provide capabilities such as security, inviolability, transparency, traceability and reduction of effort and costs in the generation of certificates. We carried out an investigation on the current state of the art in the use of Blockchain for the issuance of digital certificates, we created a theoretical framework that clarifies the concepts related to this research, emphasizing the potential of Blockchain to ensure a self-sovereign identity and then we develop the business case through strategic analysis that allows us to define the technical and business feasibility of the platform. In the final part, we perform an economic viability analysis that allows the platform to be self-sustaining and with the potential to scale and become a high-value business model.
