LOCI, a platform for intellectual property discovery and mining on blockchain today announced a new partnership with The Bureau, a major accelerator in the blockchain space.

The synergy of a partnership between LOCI and The Bureau will see the teams work toward building an entrepreneurial ecosystem of support, strategic alliances, and the exploration of technological integration. LOCI will be able to provide support and access to its platform for members of The Bureau, while broadening its exposure and reach across innovators, entrepreneurs, and start-ups alike.

The Bureau’s accelerator companies will actively leverage the LOCI Platform to help research their competitive advantages and points of differentiation in the market. Dispatch, an enterprise-focused blockchain protocol built for the management and analysis of data (and an established Bureau company), will leverage LOCI for their own research as LOCI explores integrating with Dispatch for their data needs.

Opportunities for cross-promotion of each other’s platforms and co-hosting events such as hackathons and industry meetups will also be forthcoming.

“I’ve known the LOCI team for years and have been consistently impressed by the rapid growth of their platform,” Matt McGraw says of The Bureau.  “A partnership here is a natural fit- and we believe this move will ultimately improve the caliber of The Bureau’s service offering.”
