VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 07, 2018 — GLOBAL BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGIES CORP. (CSE: BLOC, BLOC.CN, BLOC.CNX) (FSE: BWSP) (OTC: BLKCF) (“BLOC” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that its President and CEO Shidan Gouran has been asked to present a tutorial session at the Digital Money Forum event at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in January of 2019, in Las Vegas, Nevada. This session will explore the applications of blockchain technology in the consumer electronics industry, as well as the media industry – which are relatively under-explored areas of blockchain technology use.

The Company will also have a booth at the CES conference, which had a total attendance of more than 182,000 last year. With an abundance of technology industry personnel, as well as members of the media in attendance, BLOC’s presence at CES will enable it to amplify its accomplishments to date, further position itself as a leader in blockchain, and procure new business relationships with conference attendees. At the event, the Company will make several announcements relating to its latest developments. This will include initiatives in the media, and consumer electronics industry.

“As BLOC makes strides into the consumer electronics world with blockchain applications, presenting and exhibiting at CES will be amazing for us,” said Shidan Gouran – President and CEO of the Company. “While we are primarily attending to teach, with our session at the Digital Money Forum event, we are just as much attending to learn – which we very much look forward to doing with countless thousands of active members of the consumer electronics industry, who we look forward to hearing from.”
