Spearheaded by CEO Myrtle Anne Ramos, Block Tides has hosted around 30 road shows about blockchain and cryptocurrency, in and around South East Asia.
In line with the purpose of the event, the empowered lady executive who also sits as key figure in other companies like PlaceWar and GokuMarket addresses the ongoing scenario brought about by the new decade’s lockdowns and contagion. She related, “This crisis is a unique moment of risk and opportunity. We need to strengthen our base and raise our voices together to steer economic recovery.”
Ramos has helped hundreds of companies from the ground up and transform their businesses by disrupting, adjusting, or scale-utilizing the latest technological tools and products. She has likewise extended help as part of her company’s CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) by donating to and helping people in need like the victims of typhoon Ulysses, recent earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, and the ongoing global health crisis. She is credited with raising more than $200,000 from donations and giving away $60,000 through her Block Tides Live Series.
She added, “We are a team of well-experienced marketers and PR (public relations) professionals heavily involved in blockchain technology. Our team is a golden bridge towards expanding a project globally in no time with our strategic partnership between Asia Token Fund and Block PR Asia.”
