The collaboration will include joint research into Web3, blockchain, gaming, artificial intelligence, and the metaverse. It will also bring about strategic partnerships with local universities to offer specialized educational programs.

Animoca Brands will lend its expertise in tokenomics and Web3 economics to regional projects and companies, and together with KACST, will develop immersive experience labs that highlight the latest in gaming, technology, and digital innovation.

To support the burgeoning Web3 and gaming ecosystem, KACST will provide office space for startups, while Animoca Brands will contribute its specialized Web3 industry knowledge.

“We are excited to join forces with Animoca Brands in building national capabilities for gaming, immersive experiences, and Web3 technologies.
