ArtCollecting.Space Business Program: Alternative Investments, RWA

Hooray! We're back! This is our first Web3 newsletter after a break due to the opening of our own space for exhibitions and networking, ArtCollecting.Space. We have grand plans: we will be inviting outstanding artists and speakers, as well as developing our own digital products: AI applications, an NFT platform, and an RWA application.

So! What's new? The art-tech company ArtCollecting presents a business program dedicated to alternative investments and digital financial assets, RWA (real world assets). The program includes networking sessions and practically useful lectures, presentations, meetups for professionals in the fields of art, finance, and technology.

The series of events has begun on May 15, opening with an introductory lecture RWA (real world assets): art, real estate, film business. Guests got an information how RWAs differ from NFTs and receive current analytical data on the RWA market.

On May 22, there will be a presentation of the quarterly analytical report, which has been issued in PDF format (200+ A4 pages) since 2024. The report is dedicated to the field of alternative investments: art, web3, technology, and tech startups, precious metals, and gemstones. The release of the first report for Q1 2024 in English took place on April 20, 2024. On May 22, the Russian version will be presented at ArtCollecting.Space.

Events will be held daily from Wednesday to Saturday at ArtCollecting.Space at Sretensky. The schedule is published on the website. After the speaker's presentation, guests will enjoy a networking session (tea, coffee, dessert, informal communication).

All lectures and meetup materials will be translated into English using artificial intelligence. The translated videos will be available on the NFT platform ArtCollecting.Fun.
