Nanotechnology with Blockchain Acquisition.

San Marcos, TX – September 18, 2019 -- Leading American nanomaterial and cadmium free quantum dot producer and product company Quantum Materials Corp (OTCQB:QTMM) today announced the appointment of John Hartigan, a recognized leader in the blockchain business world, to the new leadership role of Chief Revenue Officer.

“I am delighted that someone of John’s caliber and experience should choose to join our company as it expands to leverage blockchain technology,” said Stephen B. Squires, President and Chief Executive Officer of Quantum Materials Corp. “I am confident that the combination of our proprietary technology and John’s business acumen will accelerate our success.”

QMC recently announced the acquisition of patent-pending blockchain platform technology, which it will leverage to address exciting soon-to-be-announced new market opportunities, augmenting its existing Quantum Dot Xtreme (QDX^TM) offerings for the display, solar energy and lighting marketplaces.

“Quantum Materials Corp is absolutely in a class of its own in the quantum dots space and now with the addition of a blockchain capability it was clear to me that I had to be involved in its very bright future. I am extremely excited to join these pioneers of the nanomaterials movement as they expand into new global markets,” said Hartigan.

John Hartigan Biography

Mr. Hartigan founded the first of his many businesses at 15 years of age: a tennis court washing service. When the rapid growth of the business began to interfere with his education, his parents made him sell it and focus on his schoolwork. Now, 30 years on, Mr. Hartigan has founded and led multiple startups and early growth projects, achieving success through strategic partnerships with a number of fortune 500 companies.

Over the past 4 years he has focused on practical business applications of blockchain and distributed ledger technologies. Most recently, Mr. Hartigan served as CEO of Intiva Health launching the first enterprise decentralized application for healthcare provider credentialing. As a blockchain and DLT evangelist Mr. Hartigan is frequently asked to speak at events around the world to share and discuss the impact of blockcahain in our daily lives.
