    The awards gala, hosted by Bloomberg Markets Anchor Jon Elrichman, was an exclusive, sold-out event honouring the foremost leaders, researchers, innovators, entrepreneurs, and service providers driving global blockchain transformation. The celebration followed a conference featuring an all-star roster of 90 plus speakers, covering topics including leadership, identity, supply chains, planet sustainability, and the metaverse.

    Dom Burch, Communications Director at Ubloquity travelled to Toronto for the awards and conference. Dom said: “It was a great privilege, and a little daunting, to be in the company of such a prestigious group of leaders and innovators. One of the key themes of the two day conference was around digital solutions for food supply chains and the movement of goods across borders – the core of what we do at Ubloquity."
