Diplomacy Lab Launches First NFT Membership

Similar to this, The Diplomacy Lab will be launching a collection of NFT’s related to the soft power objectives of the Lab. The Diplomacy Lab defines its core value in programming that addresses the key soft power objectives in the diplomatic community today. This includes themes related to culture, space, innovation, tolerance, youth, women empowerment, technology, climate action and heritage among many other. Programming is delivered through engagements with local, regional and international thought leaders and entities addressing the key challenges facing us today.

The Lab believes that the philosophy behind reaching this potential lies in the power of the community. Visionaries, ambitious scholars, career diplomats and any others with an interest in learning and engaging with a diverse pool of individuals will benefit immensely from the opportunities made available through the Lab’s network.

As part of its membership programme, The Diplomacy Lab will be launching this NFT exclusive membership offering. This will include memorable diplomatic items converted or tokenised into a non-fungible token (NFT) that will be placed on the market for interested individuals to purchase. The purchase of the NFT will include certain benefits such as access to the Diplomacy Lab’s events, programmes and exclusive network, as well as NFT members-only private dinners with high level stakeholders.
