In this article, NFTs and blockchain technology will both be explained briefly in plain English, as well as how they are being used by both individuals and businesses for a wide range of purposes, including events.
Los Angeles, CA – 1 December, 2021 – BuzzCast, the premium virtual events platform, today announced that it has strengthened its executive team with two key industry hires. John S.

NFTs can be used to drive and manage event attendee engagement and behavior.

Leveraging NFTs into higher event engagement only takes a bit of creative thinking to become reality.
