Web3 for Enterprise - Week 6/6

WE REACHED OUR LAST WEEK OF THE SERIES, BUT IT DOESN'T END HERE ??

The Web3 for Enterprise content series is part of the Linkedin UK Creator Accelerator Program. We are in our last week, but the series continues ??

In the 1st edition of the newsletter, I explained how Web3 differs from the internet as we know it today, and why you should care as a business. In case you missed it, here’s the?link

In the 2nd edition, I showed you how to set up a cryptocurrency wallet and how to navigate an NFT marketplace to buy and create your own NFT (mint). I also explained how tokens can be used to create the next level of customer engagement and brand loyalty and showed you which industries are leading the Web3 race. In case you missed it, here’s the?link

In the 3rd edition, I shared the top 111 brands that entered the Web3 space, discussed different business use cases of NFTs (according to different Ethereum token standards), and spotlighted a local London-based SME that successfully activated an NFT project for customer loyalty purposes. In case you missed it, here's the?link

In the 4th edition, as we entered the topic of Digital/ Immersive realities, I debunked some of the biggest myths surrounding the Metaverse. In case you missed it here's the?link

In the 5th edition, we spoke about how brands can effectively think of their strategy as they enter the Metaverse, as well as showing you how immersive realities created by brands actually look like. In case you missed it here's the link
