We’ve all been sleepwalking throughout the process of applying technology to society. Along the way, solutions have been developed in isolation — to drive up profits without considering larger societal impact, leaving us with untapped potential and fragmented outcome. Technological influencers have been applying tech to sustain ownership — not to do good. The system is broken. So we surround ourselves with “fixers”. 
 The only thing is: We’re past the point where patches will suffice. We need to create entirely new alternatives. At BLOC, we’ve set out to do just that: Create new platforms, new ways of doing business, new governance models and new solutions through blockchain technology. The overarching goal? Achieving positive global impact. 
 Net neutral is no longer okay. We have to be net-positive. BLOC is an independent blockchain consultancy, collective lab, and product studio. We turn ideas into practice and aim to solve industry problems through collaboration and radical thinking. We’re using blockchain technology to foster collaboration and deliver real change for entire industries and society at large. Our goal is generating global impact. At BLOC, we are open, transparent and focussed on accelerating positive change through a partnership approach. Our values are critically important and underpin our work, our way of thinking and our way of life: Open: We aim to foster true collaboration underpinned by open and transparent technologies. Real: We have a mindset that means we are not afraid to disagree or say no and are healthily skeptical of our own technology. Kindred: We support each other and our partners both as individuals and in the way we view and communicate the disrupted technologies we work. Fluid: We are adaptive. Blockchain and DLT, like other disruptive technologies, is morphing constantly, as are the needs of the markets we work within.  Grounded: We are do-ers; focused on working with industry partners to implement, not just theorize.

Global Startup Awards (GSA) was born out of the Danish startup ecosystem through the Nordic Startup Awards in 2012. What began as a regional initiative has grown into the world’s largest independent startup competition platform, now covering 154 countries across 19 regions. Through its competition framework and flagship events, GSA connects startups, investors, corporates, governments, and ecosystem enablers to showcase and accelerate innovation on both regional and global levels. GSA has offices in Copenhagen and Budapest and works closely with governments, investors, and business partners worldwide. Its model operates through a licensee-and-partnership structure, in which external organisations under the GSA framework lead several regional programs. Beyond competitions, GSA has evolved into a global innovation platform spanning multiple pillars — from events and content to data, insights, and venture partnerships — that drives collaboration between the public and private sectors to strengthen innovation ecosystems around the world.
