Our conversation about what the future holds for NFTs in sports, featuring NBA Top Shot, ZED, Calaxy, HypeSneakrs, and more
On April 27th, the Global Sports Venture Studio hosted the latest of our GSVS Talks events: a panel discussion entitled “Buying In: NFTs and the Future of Fandom” where we looked to separate fact from fiction, real opportunity from unrealistic hype, and understand the role that NFTs are playing in changing how we engage with sports.
I was fortunate to moderate a discussion with a diverse set of perspectives and companies represented, from the leaders generating millions in revenue to the creators who are just breaking through:
-
Caty Tedman, Head of Partnerships at Dapper Labs
-
Rahul Sood, CEO of Unikrn, Board Member and Investor in ZED.run
-
Rusty Matveev, Co-Founder & Chief Strategy Officer of Calaxy
-
Matt Woodward, Founder of NFT collectible HypeSneakrs
