Tel Aviv, Israel, July 22, 2022 — Today, Team Finest is pleased to announce the organization has renewed its collaboration with Tezos Israel to build their first NFT on the energy-efficient Tezos blockchain. This one-year renewal of the contract will make history as Team Finest becomes the first eSports club in Israel to produce NFTs for its fans.
As part of the collaboration, the esports club will launch activities for NFT fans as early as this coming Summer, 2022. Team Finest is set to offer NFTs built on Tezos to its community that will involve giveaways, discounts, access to virtual and in-person events, and other various utilities that will create more immersive experiences for the Finest fans.
“Through its continuous upgrades, Tezos has repeatedly shown its ability to innovate in a seamless decentralized way. Our Team Finest values match closely with their dedication to evolve with the times. Additionally, their energy-efficient validation system is perfect for us as other blockchain’s environmental concerns become more of an issue,” said Amir Vahab, Vice President of Sales and Business Development, Team Finest.
“I’m extremely excited about this partnership. We’ve worked very closely with Team Finest over these past months and I cannot be more enthusiastic about developing an even stronger relationship with the team as this partnership progresses. Blockchain and gaming have always been a perfect collaboration with each other and the past year has certainly shown how this synergy will continue to grow,” said Elie Terdjman, Founder of Tezos Israel.
Last year, Tezos Israel and Team Finest announced a sponsorship agreement for education and blockchain adoption with the eSports organization. Since the first announcement, the partnership has produced great enthusiasm within the esports community and the contract renewal is the result of a chorus of fans who want to see further projects built on the Tezos blockchain.
Team Finest fans can expect to see several announcements in the coming weeks about more developments in their partnership with Tezos Israel.
