WALK ON is a web3 company offering new content & experiences.
The message behind the company name is to encourage people around the world to "keep walking" in times of uncertainty, such as the damage caused by COVID-19 to the world, the war in Ukraine and the ensuing energy price hikes, the Myanmar uprising, and the ongoing annual decline of the Japanese economy, as well as a commitment to sustainable, long-term It is a reflection of our determination to do business in a sustainable, long-term manner.
We chose purple as our corporate color because we want to pass it on to the next generation without being bound by the old color sense of blue for men and red or pink for women.
We will strive to create a "Digital Renaissance" & Innovation in the next generation Internet society, Web3, and contribute to Japan & the world in the fields of Culture and Arts.
We aim to create an Internet/Digital world where people all over the world, regardless of country/region of birth, race, gender, age, physical individual differences, economic disparities, etc, can truly enjoy human rights, equality, and freedom of expression, communication, economic activities, and safety in their living space.
We will contribute to the establishment of the Web3 world as a new lifestyle infrastructure and access rights, such as the purchase of various tickets, restaurant reservations, and access rights through NFTs, and telemedicine through metaverse and VR.
We will not be "Money First" in terms of Evil, but rather, we will exist and continue to exist for the development of art & culture, and for the benefit of society, and we will disclose information to our members and stakeholders with integrity, and create an organization with equality.
We will contribute to a better future. And wel always think about what we can do for the future and for the people and youth who will live in the future, rather than vested interests, and we will contribute to that end.
We will be an organization that treats people not as a single social account on the Interne/Digitalt, but as real people living in the real world, and that focuses on communication to build trust and relationships with others.
Issue -> Unless they are famous, most people's NFT works do not sell. And there is no branding.
Solution -> We will brand and produce various NFT productions by showcasing them in our own NFT-specific media. This also eliminates the need for advertising. (However, this does not mean that the works will sell immediately.)
On contributing to society, solving global problems and helping people in difficult situations
WALK ON will donate a portion of the proceeds to the organisation of international human rights, social ventures and NPOs.
The goal is for students at Metaverse University to learn the latest technology, law, political science, history, geopolitics, finance, economics, business administration and art in order to survive in the modern world, to make the modern world relative to the past, to master the patterns of human history, to rebuild the country and contribute to the world.
