NBA superstar Kobe Bryant is set to speak at the NiTron Innovation Summit in January 2019. Attendees can pay TRX to buy the event tickets.

The NiTron summit is Tron’s first international Conference which will be held at San Francisco, USA. Justin Sun, the CEO of Tron has managed to get the Basketball legend himself to come and speak at the conference. Sun has never failed to attract eyeballs, in another one of his stunts that he is able to pull off this time its the greatest basketball player of all time Kobe Bryant.

Kobe will be sharing his life experience and his business insights with the audience in the summit. The conference aims to spread the advantages of Blockchains and Decentralized Applications (dApps).

According to the Press Release, Kobe is not only a successful athlete but also a lucrative investor. His most well-known investment has been a sports drink company where he turned $6 Million investment into $200 Million after Coca-Cola investment in the company.

He also has a venture capital fund with Entrepreneur Bryant Stibel which has made investments in over 15 Media and Tech companies. Kobe and Sun also share the same connections with Alibaba in China.

Sun said:

“Kobe Bryant is a basketball genius. I have been a huge fan of Kobe and deeply inspired by his journey. It’s my great honor to have Kobe as our special guest for the niTRON Summit. It’s worth mentioning that Kobe Bryant is not only a basketball genius, but also an investment genius. We look forward to hearing his great speeches at the summit.”

Blockmanity’s Take

It will be interesting to see how Sun and Kobe can synergize their resources to possibly make a partnership of some kind. Some of the previous celebrity endorsements have not gone well, Dj Khaled and Floyd Mayweather were both sued for promoting a fraudulent ICO.

We hope this one goes well!
