Global Blockchain Technologies Corp. (BLOC; BLKCF) is the first firm giving investors ground floor access to the new crop of potential crypto giants. They've put together a team of blockchain veterans, while partnering with some industry giants to implement their technology.

Other companies on the cutting edge of innovation:

Shopify manages their e-commerce machines, and its stock is now up to over $106 right now, with a market cap of over $10 billion. CNET called the application "clean, simple, and easy-to-use" in a review of the Shopify platform.

Advanced Micro Devices Inc (NASDAQ: AMD) is Nvidia's biggest competitor. The company has developed a cult following among gamers, leading to many a Reddit debate. AMD's groundbreaking technology not only rivals that of Nvidia, some even argue that it outperforms it. As the two square off, one of the key areas to keep an eye on is in the GPU race. Widely purchased across the world as bitcoin frenzy heats up, AMD is making a particularly hard push toward conquering that emerging demand.

Palo Alto Networks (NYSE: PANW) For expansion, this $12.7-billion market-cap company is a top pick with its sales of next-generation firewall solutions. It covers 150 countries and it protects data infrastructure of at least 85 Fortune 100 companies and-even better-more than half of the Global 2000. That's some major market share at a time when there is nothing short of corporate panic over data infrastructure protection. It even beat its own outlook.

Quintiles IMS Holdings, Inc (NYSE: Q) is one of the world's "most admired companies" according to Fortune Magazine. Spanning over 100 countries, Quintiles IMS is definitely ahead of the pack.
