Niko Pajkovic — September 4, 2021 — Business
While the September 2021 business trends span an impressive range of industries and boast a variety of innovative new ventures, there is a notable theme within this month's collection. In commerce, retail, art, sports, healthcare, and more, company's new and old appear to be eagerly embracing the new, virtual frontier.
In fact, a large number of this month's new ventures and business launches were in the burgeoning space of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and the metaverse. Commerce-oriented metaverse company Highstreet secured major funding to build its virtual world of retail experiences, while Atari announced the launch of its crypto casino, which will be accessible via 'Decentraland' -- a fully virtual metaverse platform. Moreover, VUELE premiered the first-ever Hollywood feature film to be delivered solely as an NFT, while Method Man tokenized a variety of hip-hop legends.
In addition, a range of virtual retail ventures and experiences were launched including a digital-only fashion platform called DressX, as well as an avatar-based shopping tool called 'PICTOFiT.'
