Blok CEO Rob Dawson said: “The proposed acquisition of Businessworx presents a milestone opportunity for BLOK Technologies.

“With our focus on the commercialization of emerging technologies, we see significant potential to expand the distribution and the revenue base of Businessworx. We’ve been following the progress of Businessworx since its inception and have been impressed by the drive and efficiency of the WORX team in developing a software tool that meets retail industry needs.”

Worx founder Marcel Newell said: “We developed Businessworx so that retailers could better market and manage their business.

“It’s an advanced business management tool that produces marketing and customer relationship programs and measurable results for our retail clients. We have seen proven success with this tool in increasing retail sales and reducing customer acquisition costs and have been able to demonstrate this to our clients through our analytics dashboard.”

Following completion of the purchase, Blok will raise a minimum of $300,000 for further development and marketing of the Businessworx software platform. Worx will operate as a subsidiary of Blok.
