Voice of Blockchain Conference Placing Core Values on Center Stage

The Voice of Blockchain Conference didn’t become the largest blockchain and digital asset event in the Midwest by accident. Sure, the location – VenueSIX10 – is stunning. And yes, the lineup of speakers – more than 200 experts in a range of fields – is impressive. However, what has made this event truly distinctive are Voice of Blockchain’s core values.
First, Voice of Blockchain believes that quality combined with trust creates value. This relationship of trust starts at the beginning of the process, with Voice of Blockchain creating important connections with speakers and sponsors. Satisfied partnerships create better experiences, not just for conference organizers but guests as well.
With that in mind, Voice of Blockchain will welcome Factom Protocol and BlocWatch as two of this year’s sponsors. The significant contributions of these sponsors to the conference, as well as the world of blockchain, are noteworthy. Other sponsors of the Voice of Blockchain conference include TD Ameritrade, Deloitte, Fidelity Digital Assets, Abstrakt, Bloxroute, Enigma, Helium, Seed CX and CryptoCurrencyWire, the premier portal for developments in the crypto space. Guests can visit with these sponsors throughout the conference to learn more about the services they provide and the value they create in the blockchain space.
Voice of Blockchain also values diversity. By paying attention to who is speaking and reaching out to traditionally underrepresented groups, Voice of Blockchain hopes to stimulate new ideas and growth in the industry. This value is clearly represented in this year’s roster, which includes over 200 talented speakers from a variety of fields. Voice of Blockchain guests will hear from people such as Kavita Jain, director of FINRA; Nadine Strossen, professor of law at New York Law School; Paul Doherty, CEO of the Digit Group; and Sunayna Tuteja, head of digital assets at TD Ameritrade, as these experts bring their considerable knowledge and experience to the table.
Furthermore, Voice of Blockchain’s organizers believe that one of the best ways for guests to experience the greatest ROI is by providing unique learning opportunities. After all, why travel to a conference just to hear something that could be easily summed up in a YouTube video? Voice of Blockchain is dedicated to curating impactful experiences for its guests. This is accomplished by providing powerful networking opportunities and allowing professionals from different fields to come together and learn from each other.
In fact, Voice of Blockchain is committed to “connecting the blockchain ecosystem,” gathering people from corporate and enterprise, digital assets and marketing, and innovation and impact to build a better future for blockchain.
This year, the second annual Voice of Blockchain will run from September 30 to October 1 in Chicago. Those interested in joining this blockchain ecosystem can visit the Voice of Blockchain website now for registration.

Sharing Services Global Corporation (SHRG) Focuses on Empowering Entrepreneurs in Direct-Selling Industry

  • The direct-selling industry is seeing rapid global growth with the ongoing shift toward a gig economy
  • Sharing Services aims to empower independent business leaders to take charge of their own lives while creating record-breaking sales
  • The company’s products utilizing dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin and endorphins create elevated happiness levels and are well-received by the market
The direct-selling industry has seen rapid growth globally. Estimated retail sales in 2018 marked a 1.2 percent increase over the previous year, bringing in $192.9 billion (http://nnw.fm/7S4nY). More and more people are relying on gig jobs that allow them to avoid long commutes to the office, restricted work hours and bosses. Sharing Services Global Corporation (OTCQB: SHRG) is one of many companies making these conveniences possible in this emerging gig economy, but SHRG stands apart from the others due to its commitment to thoroughly empowering the home-based entrepreneur.
The company calls its independent distributors ‘Elepreneurs’, and it is reshaping the industry by providing necessary tools that can lead individuals to success. From its headquarters in Plano, Texas, the company provides Elepreneurs with quality training, products and services. All of the company’s sales are through organic growth, which is attributed to the Elepreneurs, who are effectively following the company’s Blue Ocean Strategy. Since 2017, the company has added thousands of independent distributors and continues to see growth.
Elepreneurs are focused on elevating their own lives and the lives of customers through products and services. By empowering entrepreneurs to take the reins of their own lives, Sharing Services has created a simpler, more inventive approach to sales and marketing that harnesses the power of relationship marketing. Today’s consumers are reached through cost-effective and personal approaches that other organizations have lacked the ability to accommodate. SHRG Elepreneurs are taught how to connect with others, utilize social media tools and grow organic friendships through excellent customer service. These skills in utilizing customers’ online presence to cultivate personal connections are setting Elepreneurs LLC apart from other direct-selling companies.
SHRG also has a competitive advantage as it taps into the health and wellness market. Wellness products make up an estimated 33.8 percent of America’s direct-selling industry. Synergizing the customer service talents of Elepreneurs with SHRG’s happiness-stimulating products, the company has been able to increase its products’ market penetration.
These products, which are designed to elevate the happiness and well-being of customers, have been created through SHRG’s wholly owned subsidiary, Elevacity LLC. The brand is made up of core products in the nutritional category, including supplements that incorporate the company’s formulation of dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin and endorphins, or D.O.S.E. These four hormones have been shown to promote well-being and happiness.
Backed by scientific data and well-known happiness researcher Shawn Achor (http://nnw.fm/bbz9G), the D.O.S.E. products have been well received and are a large reason for SHRG’s record-breaking sales since the products debuted in December 2017. Whether customers start their day with a D.O.S.E. of happiness mixed with their coffee or in a supplement, they know they are using a product that’s made with the highest standards.
SHRG seems to have found its niche as it focuses on creating products and services that impact the happiness of customers, entrepreneurs and investors alike.

Veritas Pharma Inc. (CSE: VRT) (OTC: VRTHF) (FRT: 2VP) Committed to Developing Most Effective Proprietary Cannabis Strains and Products

  • The company recently completed clinical trials for its acute pain formulation, CTL-X, which is the most advanced product in the Veritas pipeline
  • Veritas Pharma works in two directions to put together effective cannabis-based treatments for various medical conditions
  • With the help of R&D partner Cannevert Therapeutics, Veritas is developing solutions for various additional issues like chronic pain and sleep disorders
Pharmaceutical and IP development company Veritas Pharma Inc. (CSE: VRT) (OTC: VRTHF) (FRT: 2VP) is on a mission to develop the most effective proprietary cannabis strains and products for the treatment of various medical conditions. The company focuses on providing both physicians and patients with conclusive evidence for the recommendation of medical marijuana.
In the spring of 2019, Veritas announced the results of its product clinical trials in support of the company’s commitment to developing the most effective products (http://nnw.fm/dAih5). The cannabis treatment clinical trial (randomized, double-blinded, cross-over) tested the effectiveness of the company’s vaporized CTL-X acute pain product. Studies were carried out following GMP standards over the course of three months. The results provide real scientific evidence of the use of cannabis for medical purposes and, more specifically, for the treatment of acute pain.
“We believe that for millions of people suffering from acute pain vaporized cannabis can potentially reduce the need for other medications, including opioids. From results of this study, clinicians will have a better understanding for specific dosage and delivery of cannabis for acute pain,” Veritas Medical Director Dr. Scott Alexander stated in a news release.
Veritas’ innovative research and development approach aims to solve the critical need for scientific research to support claims about the effectiveness of cannabis-based treatments. Through its research and development subsidiary, Cannevert Therapeutics Ltd., Veritas is developing innovative products for the treatment of various medical conditions like chronic and acute pain, sleep disorders and palliative care.
Cannevert has screened numerous cannabis strains to pinpoint their potential in treating chronic pain and reducing the need for opioid administration. Acute pain treatment CTL-X is the most advanced product in the Veritas pipeline and therefore the focus of its clinical trial efforts.
Veritas is also concerned with sleep disorders and the growing prominence of the conditions. Studies show that Americans are now getting one to two hours less sleep than previous generations (http://nnw.fm/FkrH3). In 1942, only 11 percent of Americans slept six hours or less per night. By 2013, the number had increased to 40 percent of the adult population, the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) reported.
Through its research, Veritas is attempting to identify cannabis as a reliable solution to this growing problem. There is some anecdotal evidence, and Cannevert is working to develop biological assays to identify the most effective strain for the treatment of insomnia, parasomnia, chronic fatigue syndrome and others.
Based at the University of British Columbia, Cannevert has brought together a team of pharmacologists, chemists and anesthetists who have substantial prior experience in drug development. Through the partnership, Veritas gains the technical ability to achieve its effective treatment development vision.

Trxade Group Inc. (TRXD) Helps Keep Lifeblood of Nation’s Independent Pharmacies Flowing

  • Trxade Group’s supplier-to-pharmacy network, delivery services and data analytics platform are empowering independent pharmacies struggling to stay in business amid competitive challenges
  • The company reported record revenues of $1.9 million for the most recent quarter, as well as other improvements to its top and bottom lines
  • The plight of independent pharmacies has caught the attention of state officials in Illinois, who recently enacted Illinois’ first oversight system for the middlemen who manage pharmacy costs and reimbursement rates
Independent pharmacies in Illinois are celebrating recent state legislative action that strengthens small businesses involved in dispensing quality of life-enhancing medications to their customers, an empowerment trend that pharmaceutical services company Trxade Group Inc. (OTCQB: TRXD) has taken to heart as it builds its own growing network of independent pharmacies across the country.
Many of those mom-and-pop pharmacies have found it necessary to close up shop due to a variety of economic conditions, creating what have come to be known as ‘pharmacy deserts’, where residents remain without close-to-home options for fulfilling their prescription needs, especially if they are looking for a familiar business that knows its neighbors and goes the extra mile to assist them (http://nnw.fm/owjD2).
Low insurer reimbursement rates have become a common complaint among community-oriented small business pharmacies nationwide. Several pharmacists have blamed the pharmacy benefit manager (PBM) middlemen who negotiate costs between pharmacies and insurers, such as Medicare, Medicaid and commercial health plans, arguing that the PBMs improperly drive up the costs of doing business and thereby force small pharmaceuticals out of business (http://nnw.fm/1cKlR).
Trxade’s network offers a platform for buying medications at competitive prices, as well as services for storing pharmaceuticals and delivering them directly to consumers, with an aim of helping sustain independent pharmacists amid their industry difficulties. Illinois’ legislature provided additional relief that was hailed by the Illinois Pharmacists Association in August by passing a bill that creates its first oversight system for PBMs, as reported by The State Journal-Register (http://nnw.fm/0xSfS). The state has also budgeted millions of dollars for pharmacy assistance out of concern for the small, independent shops, the report states.
Michelle Dyer, who operates three Michelle’s Pharmacy stores in the state, applauded the new law as “a great step to reign in the abusive powers that PBMs use against independent pharmacies,” adding that PBMs are “creating unprofitable environments that make it difficult to sustain business for independent pharmacies, and the result is that we’re seeing these businesses closing all the time in central Illinois,” according to the report.
Trxade’s own private enterprise approach to keeping the lifeblood flowing in independent pharmacies’ veins has seen its financial top and bottom lines grow. Its most recent quarterly report displays record revenue growth, as well as an increase in gross profits and a growing number of subscribers to the pharmacy network.
The company reported that revenues for the three months ended June 30 were over $1.9 million, marking an increase of 129 percent year-over-year. It also marked a 27 percent sequential increase over the first quarter ended March 31 (http://nnw.fm/eW4LI).
“We made excellent progress executing against our key strategic priorities in our Delivmeds.com program, our B2C commercial efforts and our proprietary B2B trading platform www.Trxade.com,” Chairman and CEO Suren Ajjarapu stated in a news release. “Accordingly, I am optimistic that our new product lines will generate profitability as increasing pharmaceutical prices drive independent pharmacies, payors and consumers to be more aggressive in sourcing medication.”

Neutra Corp. (NTRR) Building Vertically with Hemp Market Acquisitions to Improve Human Body, Global Environment

  • Texas-based Neutra Corp. produces nutraceutical vapor products and is expanding into hemp cultivation and purified hemp extract products
  • The wellness product industry measures in the trillions of dollars, growing faster than the global economy, and the hemp cultivation industry is expected to top $26 billion by 2025
  • The LOI for Vivis would grant Neutra Corp. an established brand of products built on crystalline CBD and full-spectrum CBD extract, while the J3 Holdings LOI would deliver land, a warehouse and a license to cultivate and refine hemp
The growing focus on health and wellness products and philosophies during recent decades has created a bustling marketplace in which businesses and consumers work collaboratively on wallet-friendly ways to love life in the living of it. Neutra Corp. (OTCQB: NTRR) is an interested player in the arena, advancing its interests in monetizing early stage research and development efforts to build a better human body and global environment by growing vertically within the nutraceuticals, food and drug, and environmental purification sectors.
Neutra Corp. has recently pursued the acquisition of companies that hold licenses to cultivate and process hemp, and to sell established high quality, high potency hemp-extracted products, through letters of intent that would bring the subsidiaries’ strengths into the fold.
The Global Wellness Institute reported last fall that the wellness industry grew by 6.4 percent each year from 2015 to 2017, topping $4.2 trillion as a market growing nearly twice as fast as the global economy (http://nnw.fm/2Od1b) as a result of concerns over the rising costs of health care and growing reporting of select chronic ailments among younger-than-traditional populations. The global hemp industry is expected to experience a CAGR of 34 percent from now to 2025, according to Research and Markets analysts, growing from $4.6 billion to $26.6 billion (http://nnw.fm/86UdP).
Neutra Corp.’s efforts to develop its portfolio demonstrate its recognition of the market factors in play, as well as its conscientiousness in making a quality of life difference for people. Medical-grade hemp extracts have gained a reputation for helping people to manage pain and anxiety, whether from chronic diseases, athletic injuries or everyday aches and pains.
The company has entered two LOIs for emerging hemp retail brand Vivis and hemp cultivator J3 Holdings. The Vivis acquisition “will give Neutra Corp. an even stronger market presence with an established brand already recognized for superiority,” Neutra Corp. President and CEO Sydney Jim stated in a news release (http://nnw.fm/Y8mbn).
Vivis has a product line that uses a 99 percent or higher grade of hemp-extracted crystalline CBD, and the firm is preparing to launch a second brand with an 80 percent or higher grade of full-spectrum CBD extract. Vivis’ extracts are certified by a third-party lab to ensure their quality.
J3 Holdings has land, a warehouse and a license to cultivate and refine hemp that are expected to prove valuable additions to Neutra Corp.’s stable.

Recovering Oil and Gas Markets Present Opportunities for Petroteq Energy Inc. (TSX.V: PQE) (OTC: PQEFF) to Showcase Revolutionary Technology

  • Renewed health in the oil and gas sectors show an ongoing need for products such as Petroteq Energy’s closed-loop, clean surface extraction CORT operation
  • Petroteq is developing what it believes to be the next big thing in the industry after fracking generated a domestic oil production boom in the United States
  • While performing maintenance and upgrades at its Utah production site, Petroteq continues to demonstrate its technology’s potential through licensing and lab testing
A new year of continuing recovery in the oil and gas markets has industry watchers enthused about the outlook for U.S. productivity for domestic and international consumers during the coming decades, with production currently hovering at a level of 19-20 million barrels per day. Demand for U.S. oil is “buoyantly very high,” with more than 2.5 million barrels per day of crude oil exported in April, according to Forbes (http://nnw.fm/l0JGR), at a rate that was 35 percent higher than the previous April. Oil product exports, on the other hand, were double that amount.
Petroteq Energy Inc. (TSX.V: PQE) (OTC: PQEFF) is building momentum as an innovator of CORT (Clean Oil Recovery Technology) and is making surface tar sands oil extraction cleaner and simpler than ever. Through a closed-loop recovery process conducted at ground level, Petroteq is removing bituminous oils from the tar sands that are plentiful in Utah’s rural eastern desert and leaving behind sands that are clean enough to grow produce.
CEO David Sealock showcased the operations processes of the company’s two-year labor of love at Utah’s Asphalt Ridge in a video tour of Petroteq’s facilities published in June (http://nnw.fm/yq7xC) in celebration of phase I production.
The company halted operations in order to perform planned equipment re-engineering. The coarseness of the Utah desert sands interfered with initial efforts to arrive at an earlier deadline, but the maintenance alterations to the equipment are expected to decrease the costs of further maintenance in the future and improve the facility’s efficiency in reaching its production goals.
While the facility upgrade advances toward recommencement of production, Petroteq has been pressing the advantages of its technology with other companies in the United States and abroad, approving its first non-exclusive licensing agreement with eastern Texas energy services company Valkor LLC in July and completing demonstrative lab projects for Asian and Australian interests that show the ability of Petroteq’s technology in recovering oil from tar sands and shale (http://nnw.fm/4D3Tj).

Endonovo Therapeutics Inc. (ENDV) Promotes Alternative to Opioid Addiction with Non-Narcotic Wearable Medical Device for Post-Op Pain

  • More than 70,000 Americans died from drug overdoses in 2017, marking a two-fold increase over the past decade, and preliminary data shows that another 68,000 overdose deaths occurred in 2018
  • Another 40,000 people lost their lives in car crashes in 2018, with drugs such as opioids serving as a contributing factor to impaired driving-related fatalities
  • The average rate of later opioid dependence and addiction among surgical patients hovered at 12 percent
  • Four out of five heroin users first misused prescription opioids, while 11.5 million people misused opioids in 2016
  • Endonovo’s SofPulse(R) is clinically proven to significantly speed recovery following surgery, reducing the need for pain medications that can lead to addiction
  • The company’s proprietary wearable device can be used for a wide range of medical conditions and is FDA-cleared for treating post-operative pain and edema in soft tissue
Finding answers to the nation’s opioid epidemic is a complex problem being fought on several fronts. In a news release, Alan Collier, chief executive officer of Endonovo Therapeutics Inc. (OTCQB: ENDV), stated that the company’s SofPulse post-operative opioid alternative medical device delivers clinically-proven post-surgical pain relief to patients.
“With the public demanding change and options other than opioids, and with very few alternatives to satisfy those demands, SofPulse is a natural and safe replacement to opioids and a solution to this health crisis,” Collier noted (http://nnw.fm/nwLd6).
Federal statistics show that opioids kill more people per year than car crashes on America’s roadways. An estimated 68,000 Americans died from a drug overdose stemming from opioid abuse in the United States in 2018, although that number could rise once final numbers are compiled, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports (http://nnw.fm/gT4Wv).
The CDC reported that, in 2016, 11.5 million people misused opioids (http://nnw.fm/9We1l), while the Department of Justice reports that four out of five heroin users first misused prescription opioids (http://nnw.fm/OEi2q).
Drug overdose deaths involving any opioid rose from 18,515 deaths in 2007 to 47,600 in 2017, with 68 percent of those deaths occurring among men, per CDC data. In addition, the National Safety Council reports that impaired driving caused by drugs, including opioids, contributed to some of the 40,000 fatal crashes that occurred in each of the past three years (http://nnw.fm/b0PaW).
Endonovo’s SofPulse provides targeted pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (tPEMF), which uses targeted microcurrents to transmit gentle pulses to the tissue. Endonovo’s SofPulse is clinically proven to significantly speed the recovery process and reduce the need for potentially addictive pain medications, thereby improving patients’ natural recovery experiences (http://nnw.fm/O9UUp).
Endonovo’s Electroceutical Therapy(TM) is cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the palliative treatment of post-surgical pain and edema and is CE-marked in the European Economic Area for the promotion of wound healing and the palliative treatment of post-surgical pain and edema. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services also has national coverage determination for the reimbursement of Electroceutical Therapy for the treatment of chronic wounds.
Dr. Peter Novak, who recently joined Endonovo’s scientific advisory board, said he believes that the company’s noninvasive Electroceutical Therapy represents “a fascinating new frontier.” Novak is the director of the Autonomic Laboratory at the Department of Neurology, Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts. He is a board-certified neurologist and a board-certified autonomic specialist.
“Endonovo has assembled a pipeline that approaches compelling pathways from unique angles,” Novak stated in a news release (http://nnw.fm/KE4ng). “There is a major need for therapeutics that improve post-operative recuperation, so I am pleased to join a team that has connected novel science with patient need so clearly.”
