    Vision

    Blocko is a private successful blockchain business based in Korea (4 years old and generating revenues - not just "whitepapers" like many other firms)

    We are now launching our EMEA business out of London (company is in process of being incorporated) - we are based out of WeWork Marylebone

    Blocko has developed a core blockchain tool chain platform called Coinstack - that is uses to build bespoke / hi-performace private (permissioned) blockhains

    Coinstack uses the public bitcoin protocol + Ethereum VM + advanced toolchain + API

    Currently has circa 50 people (30 developers) - 3 in London but growing to 15-20 by end 4Q18 and likely to be closer to 65-80 people by end 4Q19

    24 private blockchain implementations with Korea's largest firms (Samsung, Hyundai, Kia Motors, Kores Stock Exchange, LG, Shinhan Bank and Lotte Card)

    Over 25 million end users of end points running on productions blockchain systems built by Blocko

    Samsung Ventures invested (series-A) and we just closed a large Series-B to expand our R&D and build the EMEA business

    Blocko has developed a new platform called Aergo that we have just closed our funding for (this is what many call an ICO but our sale is to private institutional investors only)
    Please look at our white paper for more info on our strategy, target market and proposed technology stack

    In short, and after IBM, Blocko probably has the most production-ready deployed enterprise blockchain systems in use today.

    We are seen as one of the potential "future big bets" in the enterprise blockchain space.

    Blocko will in effect be the primary R&D team for project Aergo (that has just as described received significant institutional investment):

    We are building within Blokco two R&D teams for Aergo:

    (1) core hi-speed blockchain public protocol and new advanced features - out of Korea and

    (2) new R&D team in EMEA to build out all the new enterprise blockchain architecture capabilities (marketplace, orchestration platform and Github like repository system)
