Volkswagen India said, “Škodaverse India signifies the brands leap into uncharted digital territory. It’s not just about creating extraordinary digital assets, it’s about forging deep connections with a community that shares an unwavering passion for the brand and its initiatives in India.”
NFTs serve as digital certificates of ownership, providing distinctive identifiers that cannot be copied, substituted, or subdivided. These certificates are securely recorded on a blockchain, serving as proof of authenticity and ownership for various digital forms, including images, videos, sounds, tickets, and membership passes.
Škoda Auto India is collaborating with Antier, a blockchain consulting firm, to develop and produce NFTs as part of its web 3.0 strategy. The NFT collections will offer exclusive collectibles to deepen the connection with the brand.
Through Škodaverse India, Škoda Auto India aims to explore the potential of NFTs and decentralized blockchain technology, providing a distinctive digital experience for its customer base while enabling an active community of Škoda enthusiasts.
