About this event
BIMA x Never Mind the Buzzword
'Buzzword' is defined as a word or phrase, often an item of jargon, that is fashionable at a particular time or in a particular context...and let's be honest, digital and tech have a LOT of them. This hybrid event series will see BIMA's councils come forward to demystify and explore all the hot topics in 2022, from the metaverse and creating your own NFTs to carbon positivity and where AI can take us next.
We're back with BIMA's Blockain Council for an online masterclass with Create your own NFT .
What's it about?
NFTs have spread faster than Coronavirus and are now officially A THING with brands including Stripe, Bolt, Meta, Shopify, Microsoft, Nike, Disney, Spotify, Instagram, Starbucks, Gucci, Google and many others participating in the opportunity. But what are they, how do you create them and what are they useful for?
Join Paula Pettit (Linum Labs) and Dave Lockie (Automattic) for this 60-minute, interactive online masterclass to understand what NFTs mean for your business, your customers, and how it can drive innovation in 2022 and beyond.
What will we cover?
- An introduction to NFTs and their history to date,
- Blockchain onboarding, including wallets, security and popular NFT marketplaces,
- Hands-on NFT creation on the Polygon network, how to view and engage with them,
- Further discussion on how to participate in the community, supported by case studies.
NOTE: Don't forget to bring a piece of art or photo to mint as an NFT!
Who's it for?
This hands- on, interactive online masterclass is aimed at folks who are Web3 curious but so far uninitiated. Don’t have a digital wallet? Never bought a cryptocurrency? Wondering what the heck all the fuss is about and want to find out through hands-on learning and discussion? This is for you!
