NFTs: latest geek fad or actual game-changing way of thinking value?

Avolta Partners is proud to have acted as financial advisor to RTFKT Studio on its $8m growth financing round led by Andreessen Horowitz.

RTFKT Studio is a creator-led organization that uses the latest in NFT, game engines and augmented reality, combined with manufacturing expertise to create one-of-a-kind sneakers and digital artifacts. The company’s latest collaboration with designer Fewocious just sold 600+ pairs of NFT sneakers in 6 minutes, bringing in over $3m.

This $8m growth financing will enable the company to invest in the development of new NFT utilities and boost its physical goods craftsmanship and partnerships for unique experiences.

This deal is further testament to Avolta Partners’ pioneering position in the blockchain ecosystem, after advising FundsDLT on their European fundraising and Blockchain.io on their latest ICO.

“We believe NFTs are a transformative medium that is going to be the key to new experiences and the new paradigm between creativity and commerce. We are more than grateful for Avolta Partners' support through this decisive step in building the brand of the future.”
Benoit Pagotto
Co-founder at RTFKT Studio
