Boardwalktech Signs Significant Contract With Leading Professional Services Firm

Canada NewsWire

CUPERTINO, CA, July 18, 2018 /CNW/ - (TSXV: BWLK) – Boardwalktech Software Corp. ("Boardwalktech"), a leading enterprise blockchain software company, is pleased to announced that it has signed a significant contract with a multinational professional services and tax firm to deploy its patented blockchain digital ledger data management platform. The contract begins this quarter and involves an annual subscription license, plus professional services work to enable enterprise applications. With this new contract, Boardwalktech's existing customers/users now include two of the "Big Four" accounting firms, plus 25 of the Fortune/Global 500 companies.  

By engaging Boardwalktech on this solution, this new customer will be able to digitally transform their existing, sophisticated tax applications without having to re-platform which will minimize disruption to their existing engagement models while providing them a comprehensive digital transformation result providing scale, security, centralized data management, integration with other systems, and an on-ramp to the emerging blockchain technology.

"With this new contract, Boardwalktech has added its second "Big Four" accounting firm customer who is using our technology for its mission critical applications, which is both a significant endorsement regarding the uniqueness of our patented digital ledger blockchain technology and will contribute to future revenue," said Andrew T. Duncan, President and CEO of Boardwalktech Software Corp.

Digital ledger-based data, where information is arranged within a grid and the position and order of the data conveys business meaning, has historically posed a challenge for digital transformation efforts. Boardwalktech's patented positional cell data management technology, first offered to market in 2007 as a digital ledger database and now referred to as a blockchain digital ledger, is uniquely capable of digitally transforming and scaling grid-based digital enterprise information exchanges which today are done inefficiently with great risk most often in legacy desktop environments like Microsoft Excel.

In connection with its June 11, 2018 listing on the TSX Venture Exchange, Boardwalktech has engaged Grit Capital Advisory ("Grit Capital") to provide investor relations and shareholder communications services. Grit Capital has been engaged to assist with engaging the investment community; coordinating investor roadshows and shareholder meetings, key messaging and preparing and distributing news releases. Under the terms of the Agreement, Grit Capital will receive $8,000 CAD per month for an initial 6 months. The Agreement also provides for a fee of $50,000 in restricted stock units to be vested equally over a three-year period; Grit Capital does not own any shares in the Company.
