"Gamelancer owns the largest network of gaming focused channels on TikTok globally[1], with studios in Vancouver and Toronto curating content in-house for clients and agencies. We broadcast content our clients hire us to produce, alongside viral videos which live natively on our channels. Short-form media like the videos we see on TikTok and Instagram Reels, is the future of media, and Gamelancer has become a trusted partner of some of the largest brands on the planet to help them story-tell and engage customers by utilizing the short-form video we produce. It was always our intent for NFTs to be a product line our customers could select as an option to promote their campaigns, however we have witness significant decrease in the demand for NFTs, and as such we are dropping the product from our offering. Gamelancer is a media-first entertainment company helping brands and agencies engage the youth & young adult audience on TikTok, Instagram and Snapchat." - Jon Dwyer, Chairman & CEO - Gamelancer Gaming Corp.
