Thank you for your answers!

I am looking for companies that actually are developing with blockchain technology in their business process. I want to meet companies that not only accept BTC as a form of payment for their service/product or give as salary to their employees. I hope that you see the difference between the two.

Nevertheless, I appreciate everyone's answers. Now, I am taking my time to do my research on the suggested ones.

I will re-open this thread when I finished with my research and I still need more suggestion. Thank you!

I know a couple of good businesses that have implemented and invested in Blockchain technology and blockchain related innovations.

You could have a look at the following:

1) OpenChain: Provides an open source distributed ledger platform for companies looking to issue and manage digital assets. Basically it'd allow any company or user to run their own private sidechain. It even has a gateway that creates 2-way pegging between two open chain instances.

2) Wave: Paperless trading (blockchain based Bill of lading for supply chain management). With this all of the Bill of lading documents for inventory shipped and quantities will be recorded on the blockchain rather than making use of paper. It's an interesting project for large or medium sized businesses.

3) 21co: Install their application on any device and earn bitcoins for HTTP requests. Allows developers to buy and sell API calls on the 21co marketplace. Can add Bitcoin micropayments with few lines of code to your projects.

Hey!

I will have to participate in a trainee program as part of my studies at Uni and I thought that maybe I could use my enthusiasm in blockchain technology to accomplish this program at a company that is somehow related to blockchain related development.

Do you know about any REGISTERED company that uses BTC somewhere in their business process?

I would be more than glad if you told a company that accepts employees at INTERNATIONAL level.

STEAM started using the bitcoin, and tbh I'm very, very glad they did.

The trend began in 2014 when Overstock.com announced that it would accept Bitcoin payments. Several other large online retailers followed suit.
You can use Bitcoin to make purchases with some of the world’s largest companies, and with a few creative workarounds, even at companies that don’t technically deal in Bitcoin. Here are just of a few of those places:

Expedia. One of the world’s largest travel sites allows its customers to purchase flights, hotels, and other travel accommodations via their partner Coinbase. You might say that Expedia doesn’t really accept Bitcoin because they use a vendor to handle the transaction. But every company in the world operates this way. If you use a Visa or an American Express card to make your purchase, Expedia is going to receive your payment in Dollars from Visa or American Express. Coinbase, just like Visa or American Express, is a commerce platform that just happens to accept Bitcoin and distribute traditional currency.

Dell. Laptops, sound systems, monitors, basically electronics company. Accepts bitcoins. Smiley

Valve. Their gaming platform Steam recently started accepting bitcoins.

Hope this helps you with the studies.

I think now there are more than 1000s of international brands that accept bitcoin. Major player in this field is Microsoft which is well known to every pc user and even non user also knows about Microsoft. I think Google week also start accepting bitcoin shortly since Google is highly strict with their policies so they hadn't not taken the path to accept bitcoin as of now

I don't know any international company that accepts Bitcoin as a payment method. But I know a school in Karnataka, India which accepts Bitcoin as a payment mode to pay the fees.
That's the second school I've heard of taking tuition payment via BTC, I'll have to look it up as for the life of me I cannot remember the name!

Your point is not clear, and I should for taking a more time give an opinion for this. Please, you could try for writing a simple text about the main things on your thread. This has a lot of definition and for avoiding about the spam correcting your explanation with giving more proper sentences or word for it.

i think op is looking fore a place where they use bitcoin or blockchain technology as a feature and not as money. so accepting bitcoin is not the thing to look for. it is more about a company that uses the blockchain to maybe verify a house selling on the chain.  
Well like, Disney right?
It has been discused here that Walt Disney company was searching for blockchain talent to join with them as developers research and develop software mechanisms  in order to protect privacy in distributed ledger. Now they have created "Dragonchain".

You should be specific on what type of service you are asking. Because there a lot of companies abroad are now accepting bitcoins. And you should be specific on where, particular place you are going to go.

yES YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT! Bitcoin gambling sites pays bitcoins, other are bitcoin escrows and tradings that pays bitcoin for advertisements. The author should make it clear as to what services or to what kind of company the author is referring to. Well somewhere in canada or in england as i can remember is paying bitcoins to their employee Im not familiar with the company name and its location though.
