Other notable business partners � Vanda Capital, Deo Network, Ahamove, Ecomobi and Pencil Group – are also participating.

Aura Network’s Founder, Tran Hoang Giang, expressed his confidence in the development of the platform – “Aura Network is delighted that our strategic partners recognize our infrastructure capability. We believe in the potential growth of NFTs and the future of interoperable, as well as the strength of our community and ecosystem”.
