Our Europe tour is coming to an end and we are on our way back. We know you’ve been waiting for the follow up so here it is ;).

Zürich

It was the most intense trip that we’ve made so far but in the end, it was worth it. So lets start with the first destination — Zurich, Aug 26th. The conference was held in the Renaissance Zurich Tower Hotel and it was our first pitch so we had some technical difficulties that we could not predict but like true professionals — we solved everything and in the end, managed to impress the audience. :)

London part 1

The day after the conference we were on our way to London. Our team decided to twist up things a little bit and we had two of our team members pitching — CEO Bojan Oremuž and CoFounder Gregor Žvikart. Based on the feedback we received, we are safe to say that this was a great decision as the investors were very curious about EMMARES after the event and we were invited to a special dinner with all the ‘big players’.

Paris

We barely had a chance to get some rest, because the next day we were on the road again — this time we chose a train (Eurostar) from London to Paris instead of a plane and we have to say that this was a great, fast and easy way of traveling. The conference was on Aug 30th in the Renaissance Paris Republique Hotel.

This was in a way the breaking point for our Europe trip. We have met quite a few strong investors and CEO Bojan and Cofounder Gregor decided to make a U-turn and instead of going to Berlin & Amsterdam, go back to London for the World Blockchain Forum that was happening from 2nd —5th Sept.

The logistics were a bit complicated since we have booked most of the hotels, flight tickets and transfers in advance but luckily we were able to manage the situation in a way so that we had EMMARES presenters at both locations. A typical day in a crypto life, right? Always be prepared for anything ;).

Barcelona

After a few intense days in Paris, Barcelona was a more peaceful stop. Or so we thought. It turned out that the conference was very strong there and we have successfully closed some partnerships (already published or will be in the following days). Gaining new great partnerships was an important goal on this Europe tour (besides the obvious) since we are building up our base of quality marketers in EMMARES platform. In addition, the know-how we’re exchanging between the teams is important and enables us to create the best user experience possible.

London part 2, Berlin and Amsterdam

Like we mentioned, our initial plan was to travel to Berlin after Barcelona and to end our tour in Amsterdam. Well, we did, but not quite like it was planned. We pitched in Berlin on September 3rd and also in Amsterdam on September 5th. At the same time, Bojan and Gregor booked a last minute plane from Barcelona straight to London and went to the WORLD BLOCKCHAIN FORUM.

This was a great experience and we can say that it was a risky decision but worth the risk. We are already swamped with the after-tour activities and are keeping in touch with the investors and funds.

The aftermath

We are sure that many of you would like to know the facts and details. Although this wasn’t our first crypto tour, it was a great learning experience. We learned that it really takes A LOT from everyone involved in such a trip to achieve ANY result. Those who say ‘just go to a few events and you’ll reach your financial goal and get investors’ are fake. The truth is, today you have to be very careful WHERE to go and set up a clear goal. We were lucky enough to be a part of the IDACB World Blockchain Roadshow and there were legitimate ICO investors, enthusiasts, and funds. We can also recommend the World blockchain Forum in this aspect. But remember — nothing is guaranteed and the majority of people you’ll meet will be full of false promises. You just have to learn how to read people.

Of course, the basis to succeed in this type of events is an AMAZING product, and EMMARES is just that. The biggest confirmation was the feedback from the attendees who in many cases came up to us and said we were the best.

Fingers crossed that we’ll soon be seeing concrete results from this tour, but there is no time to rest.
