OriginTrail News

Dear Tracers

A new week - a new update. With the Open Call in full swing and companies preparing their annual plans for 2019, the team is mostly engaged in B2B activities these days. But of course, we try to report on what can be reported.

Here is what we delivered last week:

• John G. Keogh prepared a presentation Blockchain-driven Value Chain Transparency & Trust. It is a great material for Trace Alliance members and other companies who aim to leverage blockchain technology and OriginTrail protocol to increase transparency and build trust.
• Co-founder & CEO Tomaž was presenting at the Global Agri-Food Forum in Mexico. There were thousands of attendees at this professional event. This is a very good exposure for the protocol and a good channel to reach businesses and increase adoption.
• We presented OriginTrail to 150 managers who work in retail at a professional event in Slovenia.
• Since open call is in full swing and we are receiving the first application, Nino and I hosted an AMA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isELyngFoE8. We answered 10 questions about the open call and gave some useful tips to companies, organisations and individuals who are getting ready to apply.
• The tech team is busy building something that we cannot yet communicate, but is going to be a great addition for the adoption of OriginTrail solutions in the future.
• We updated “About Us” page on our website. It now includes a brief history of the company and key milestones, and it also highlights experience from the team. How do you like it?

​

And some of the things that we are planning for next week are:

• Next week we will have co-founder & CTO Branimir in Slovenia. First, he will be lecturing at MakeIT technology conference. Other speakers there are from IBM, Oracle, Red Hat, etc. Later on, he will be joining us in Ljubljana HQs.
• You will hear from founders - I do not know the exact format yet (cheering for a video), but since the co-founders Žiga and Tomaž are in our Hong-Kong office, we will maybe have to make some adjustments. We will announce it when we are ready.
• We will mostly be working with businesses and companies who are preparing to join the mainnet. It is probably not going to be a content-heavy week on social media, but it is definitely going to be an important week for Q4 traction.

Have a great week, Tracers. Thank you for keeping up with our progress.

Let’s make Q4 a great wrap up of our first year together!

Trace on,

Maja

Dear Tracers

This weekend I was working on some long-term strategic projects and it really hit me how lucky I am to have a chance to work for a company with a 5-year tradition and share this journey with a wonderful community. It inspired me to tweet this pic. Founders have proven longevity and agility more than once and we are determined to bring blockchain technology and OriginTrail protocol to many businesses across the world. We moved to Q4 and a lot of things, which are a result of a long-term effort will happen. A big warm thanks to all of you who support us and follow the progress.

Let’s recap what the team has delivered last week:

• OriginTrail Network Explorer is a search engine for the OriginTrail Decentralized Network. Last week we prepared a Medium article about the tool and a cool demo video.
• Co-founders Žiga Drev and Tomaž Levak had a great B2B webinar on a popular platform BrightTalk. You can still view the recording in case you missed the live webinar.
• Co-founder Branimir Rakić was in Germany at SAP HQs. He spoke at a Digital Supply Chain Institute forum and was very generous with photos. Check out OriginTrail’s Twitter feed.
• You can now read our updates on Blockfolio Signal if you use the The World's Most Popular Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency Portfolio Management App :)
• We published the September monthly report
• Last but not least we sent out a bi-weekly newsletter

What’s up next:

• Co-founder Tomaž Levak will send some updates from his speaking engagement at Global Agri-Food Forum in Mexico.
• The team is working hard to organize an important project, which we cannot reveal yet, but we definitely think you will like it.
• Trace Alliance Chairman John G. Keogh will give a presentation on traceability and transparency with blockchain. We will share a video.
• We will ask the product team for a short update.
• Open Call Promotion: This week we will mainly focus on additional outreach and project management for the Open Call. A lot of partners and friends of the company are sharing the Open Call via their newsletter. We are receiving the first applications, which is great given the fact that there is more than a month to the final deadline. This week we will also organize an AMA for the Open Call - stay tuned.

Gotta get back to work to deliver a fantastic Q4.

Stay tuned & Trace on!
