Worldwide, technology around NFT is considered a public favourite. The NFT is established on a person’s digital asset such a photo, drawing, video footage, or a piece of music, once proof of ownership of said asset has been established. This helps them generate income from such property, ownership or right of possession. Owners of NFTs may also provide descriptive details or features of the assets they own.
It is worth mentioning that Bilarab Bin Haitham Award for Architectural Design targets the youth aged under thirty-five years. Ten projects have qualified for the final stage of the first edition of the award.
Those who qualify will have to deliver detailed presentations on their projects before the Arbitration Committee along with direct discussions on 27 and 28 February at the Exhibitions Hall of Sultan Qaboos University.
