Objective
It’s important that Near Digitalfashion Dao establish clear objectives before attending the event, by doing so we are ensuring that our participation aligns with the mission, values, and long-term goals of both our Dao and CDAO which will enable our Dao to make the most out of ETH Milan 2023 and maximize the opportunities available.
Networking and Collaboration: One of the primary objectives is to network and collaborate with other participants, developers, designers, and stakeholders in the web3 Ecosystem and blockchain communities. This will lead to potential partnerships, knowledge sharing, and exploring opportunities for joint initiatives or projects that will elevate the growth and presence of Near Ecosystem.
Showcasing Digital Fashion Assets: ETH Milan will serve as a showcase platform for our DAO’s digital fashion assets. The DAO will exhibit its NFT-based fashion creations, virtual clothing, or other digital fashion items, allowing attendees to explore and experience the DAO’s unique offerings firsthand.
