New Human Capital Additions to Accelerate Development of uNFTs, Metaverse Architecture, and Web 3.0 Infrastructure
VANCOUVER, BC, Dec. 7, 2021 /CNW/ - Looking Glass Labs Ltd. ("LGL" or the "Company"), a digital agency specializing in non-fungible tokens ("NFTs") utility NFT ("uNFT") architecture, immersive extended reality ("XR") metaverse design, and virtual asset royalty streams, is pleased to announce that it has taken possession of its global corporate headquarters (the "HQ") located in Vancouver, Canada, from which LGL and its flagship studio, House of Kibaa ("HoK"), among other future entities, will carry out operations. In accordance with the Company's rapid growth, it is hiring new employees in technical, creative, administrative, and executive roles in the Vancouver area. Current vacancies are posted on LGL's website at www.lgl.io and additional information can be found on the Company's LinkedIn profile at www.linkedin.com/company/looking-glass-labs/about/.
As a multidisciplinary platform specializing in uNFT collections, metaverse architecture, and Web 3.0 infrastructure, LGL Management has identified the importance of maintaining a corporate headquarters in which employees, clients, vendors, and strategic partners can collaborate in person, as appropriate. As the cryptocurrency, blockchain, NFT, and metaverse markets continue to evolve at an unprecedented pace, LGL's view is that a creative workspace is key to developing a distinct corporate culture. Furthermore, the HQ could be an invaluable catalyst for innovation and opportunity origination through collaboration.
LGL intends to incorporate metaverse technologies into certain aspects of its HQ, thereby providing a unique experience for Company staff and visitors alike, in addition to presenting opportunities for users to trial the Company's proprietary technologies and metaverse-enabled digital assets. LGL is also in the process of vetting locations for satellite offices in various international locations known for their NFT-savvy and metaverse-informed talent pools including, but not limited to, Los Angeles, New York City, France, and Vietnam. The Company views human capital as a major competitive advantage in its industry and is therefore aggressively pursuing the acquisition of the most talented personnel and companies around the world.
