https://ift.tt/tu1V8Tc proffessional football club KMST enters into strategic partnership with DEA

Digital Entertainment Asset Pte. Ltd. (DEA), a Singapore-based global GameFi platform company, announced today that it has entered into a strategic partnership with Deinze Football Club NV (KMSK Deinze), the group company of ACA Football Partners Pte Ltd (ACAFP). KMSK Deinze belongs to the second division in the Belgian Pro League.

The new initiative will allow KMSK Deinze to attract new sponsorships which will be used to purchase NFTs, digital assets, and game items on DEA’s PlayMining gaming platform. It will also participate in DEA’s Play to Earn games as a gaming guild.

Gaming guilds are organizations that generate revenue from games by investing in and organizing NFTs for Play to Earn games. They are growing rapidly, especially in Southeast Asia, and are attracting attention as a new means of job creation and employment.

This partnership will allow KMSK Deinze to generate new sponsorship revenue and guild business revenue. DEA will also work together with KMSK Deinze to increase awareness of the game and its proprietary token DEAPcoin (DEP) in the European region.

The guild business is an attractive ESG investment for club sponsors, given its focus on creating new jobs and new forms of employment.  Supporters who earn rewards through Play to Earn games are expected to channel those funds into club-related consumption, which could lead to the revitalization of the sports club economic sphere.

DEA plans to sponsor KMSK Deinze for the next season. As a strategic partner, it will work together with the club to create more comprehensive Web3 initiatives in the future. This will include the creation of an economic zone using Watch to Earn and fan tokens.

“The city of Deinze, led by Mayor Jan Vermeulen, has been working on various measures to revitalize the city. When we thought about contributing to the community through football as a member of the community, we wanted to release the potential of football following the most cutting-edge trend of the times. We endorsed the mission of DEA, which advocates social contribution through GameFi. We look forward to working with Mr. Yoshida and the rest of the creative team at DEA.”

“I respect KMSK Deinze, a soccer club with a long history, for their bold challenge in the Web3 space. I am convinced that building an economic zone using Play to Earn will be a sustainable and effective approach to promoting sports culture. We look forward to working with Deinze to set a great precedent.”
