The metaverse is empowering brands to engage with their customers and conduct business in novel new ways. However, not many people understand how to create assets and develop business models—or even how to simply get started. INDEX GAME, a Cyberport community company, offers customised, one-stop agency services to help brands capitalise on the metaverse's endless array of opportunities, and capture the first-mover advantage.
INDEX GAME’s services include buying and selling LANDs in The Sandbox, designing voxel-based assets, and developing Web3 and blockchain games. It also offers advertising solutions, social experiences, NFT products; and metaverse seminars, workshops, and courses to help newcomers gain knowledge. All of these are to connect more brands to the metaverse and grasp its vast potential.
The start-up already serves an impressive clientele, including Adrian Cheng, SCMP, Sun Hung Kai, and TamJai SamGor. It is the first Hong Kong-based metaverse agency officially appointed and invested by The Sandbox, which recently invested US$1.7 million in the company. That initial amount will increase to a total investment of US$6 million by 2023 to support INDEX GAME’s development in the metaverse, as well as NFTs, GameFi, Web 3.0, and play-to-earn content.
Originally an independent game studio, INDEX GAME developed the pioneering metaverse game, Kowloon Walled City, and many others. It is now a company with more than 40 employees.
