丹青社がサービスを提供するアート・工芸作品のプラットフォームB-OWNDが「2024 デジタルアーカイブ産業賞」（主催：デジタルアーカイブ推進コンソーシアム）において、4つの部門賞のうちデジタルアーカイブ産業の発展に大きく寄与した個人・企業・団体を対象とする「貢献賞」を受賞しました。
The Digital Archive Industry Awards aim to raise social interest in the digital archive industry and the Digital Archive Promotion Consortium by honoring activities that contribute to the promotion of the digital archive industry, and to contribute to the development of the industry. There are four categories: Technology Award, Business Award, Contribution Award, and Encouragement Award. The awards are selected each year, and the winners are announced and presented at the general meeting.
Our award-winning business, "B-OWND," is an online marketplace that launched in 2019 and handles craft works as the highest level of art that expresses Japanese beauty. By carefully introducing artists and their works, we aim to be a platform that connects artists and buyers. In addition, on B-OWND, you can purchase works that come with a digital certificate of authenticity via blockchain. The fact that you have purchased a work is recorded semi-permanently, and each person's aesthetic sense is engraved in the history of art and crafts.
Reasons for the award
For five years, the company has provided a platform for disseminating Japanese art and craft works, and by combining blockchain and NFT technologies, it has contributed to nurturing artisans and developing culture. By using blockchain technology to digitize the authentication and ownership management of works, the company has realized a more reliable archive.
