We worked together with HU University of Applied Sciences Utrecht (Hogeschool Utrecht) and the student groups of Giancarlo Pazzanese, MEd and Bei Wang 王蓓 on this latest project. Thanks to BNV 💯 member Ann Claes for the initial introduction. This is the start of many planned educational engagement between the Foundation and other institutes around the world. #futureoffashion

I am pleased to share the results of our game workshop, part of the Decentralizing the Creator Economy course at Creative Business HU. Our students brainstormed game angles and developed six game concepts. Using AI tools, they created visuals to pitch their ideas as mood boards. The pitches combined fashion and tokenization using the Fa$H coin to create decentralized ecosystems focusing on transparency, education, and fair value distribution. The final results were presented to their peers and the client, Brand New Vision - Foundation, our industry collaborator for the session. Two exceptional projects emerged as winners: 🎉 FABRIC stands out for its focus on collaborative brand-building and social grouping. By enabling users to create stories and narratives around collections or trends while forming tribes or squads, it merges creativity with competition. The potential for followers and in-game activities within these groups adds a dynamic social layer to the concept, making it highly versatile and innovative. Kudos and credits to Meida Nemuraitė, Sofia Ragina, Marcus de Jonge, and Constantin von Wasielewski. 🎉 ThreadQuest proposes the intriguing idea of mystery boxes with tokenized rewards, encouraging players to trade, swap, and sell items. This gamification format is engaging and promotes user interaction, both in gameplay and in a broader ecosystem. Its focus on rewarding creativity and fostering a trading culture makes it a strong contender for further development. Kudos and credits to Vincenzo Cozza, Nikki van Rooy, and Noah Wallner. Thanks to Bei Wang 王蓓 (co-teacher) and Richard Hobbs from the Brand New Vision - Foundation, and all the students from the course for their hard work, creativity, and dedication. We look forward to continuing collaborations that bridge education with tech innovation in the creative industries. Feel free to reach out if you would like to be a guest speaker in the coming course iterations. Also thanks to Peter Nobels who was our guest speaker for the DAO session. #fashion #education #digitalfashion #creativebusiness #CreativeBusinessHU #Web3Innovation
