The enterprise blockchain platform, which aims to expand applications like ERP and CRM to help businesses, was ranked among the top ten providers in its field as well as being named ‘Company of the Year’ in CIO Applications this month. 

SophiaTX is encouraging the adoption of blockchain across different industries – with the hope it’ll disrupt innovation and management.

We are pleased to recognize SophiaTX for its exemplary contribution in providing robust solutions in blockchain.”

The company was also named by Enterprise Security in its Top 10, after a year-round selection process. The publication’s market research team tracks all available solutions in the marketplace, and monitors conversations and updates in the industry.

“Since holding our Token Generation Event at the end of 2017 we have made huge advancements towards our goal of using integrated blockchain to revolutionize the industry,” Kacina added. “I’m delighted that we are already seeing this level of recognition. It is a testament to the efforts of so many here within the company – as well as the appetite from business leaders for this type of solution – that we’re able to mark this achievement.”
