TAKUROMAN will participate as a guest speaker at NFT.NYC 2023, held in New York from April 12-14. His work will also be exhibited at the venue.
He plans to stay in New York during the period and attend the VIP dinner on the 11th.
I hope to interact with participants, visitors, and organizers.

■ What is NFT.NYC? (※ From the organizer's homepage)
It is the largest event where the global NFT community gathers in New York City. #NFTNYC2022 attracted over 16,000 participants from more than 70 countries.
Some sponsors even call it the Super Bowl of the NFT world.
It is also characterized by its authenticity, inviting only the most passionate speakers from the NFT community to its stage. Many major NFT projects were discovered early at NFT.NYC (OpenSea, CryptoPunks, The Sandbox, Nifty Gateway, Rarible all spoke at #NFTNYC2019).
Since 2019, it has partnered with Coinbase, Dapper, OpenSea, MoonPay, Polygon, Immutable, and over 300 other companies to consistently create the best NFT events.

Speakers from various NFT-related fields around the world will participate.
At this event, speakers will participate in either a solo speech or a panel discussion. TAKUROMAN is awaiting the organizer's announcement on which it will be, but he hopes to speak on the theme of "How artists can contribute to spreading NFTs in Japan."
As background, in October last year, TAKUROMAN held a two-day workshop at gespo☆party 2022, where he conveyed the appeal of NFTs, which he learned through his creative activities, to visitors. Many visitors showed interest, and as a result, 11 people created NFT wallets.
Expanding the base of NFTs in Japan is expected to be important in the future, and I would like to share what I learned through the two-day workshop.
