In this TIGER Talk, our presenter Rob Richardson will explain what NFTs (non-fungible tokens) are and how they’re disrupting the art and entertainment industry. In 2021 alone, NFTs have become a multi-billion dollar industry, changing how creators engage and monetize their work and how brands interact with customers. Learn about the emerging trends and the growing opportunities in the NFT space.
