In this workshop, we'll break down the fundamentals of NFTs, explore real-world examples, and provide practical tips for leveraging NFTs in your industry.

  • Learn the basics of NFTs incl. smart contracts, utilities and applications
  • Explore popular NFT marketplaces and platforms
  • Which traditional or “web2” companies have incorporated NFTs into their business
