Most modern games have in-game virtual currency models that made the transition to cryptocurrencies much easier

Stakeholders in the gaming industry are known for having an appetite for the latest technology. And any user that has played in an immersive gaming world has used virtual currency.

Blockchain and gaming are two industries that can mutually benefit from a collision.

For instance, while blockchain’s immutable ledger can supply tools that enable better monetisation for both game players and game developers. The demand for virtual assets built on blockchain will create a use case that will drive mass adoption of blockchain technology.

Furthermore, a majority of industry leaders agree that there is great promise in the fusion of the two.

In a special report by Zage on the future of blockchain, Miguel Palencia the chief information officer at Qtum Foundation says that “gaming will be one of those” industries set to have the biggest opportunities for blockchain technology in the next 5 years.

Here’s a fresh look at some of the possibilities that could occur through a fusion of blockchain and gaming.

Improved user experience and compelling gameplay

Virtual reality is increasingly becoming the next big thing in gaming. Various reports indicate that since the release of the first Oculus and Samsung VR prototypes in 2015, the global revenue of Virtual Reality gear in gaming has reached a whopping USD$4.3 billion.

Mathew Campbell the CEO of Loom Network, believes that “blockchain opens up completely new and unique capabilities for true ownership of digital assets, provably  scarce items, eternal worlds/immortal characters and multi-game spanning universes.” All these possibilities will create an engaging and immersive gaming experience like never before.

Add scarce and virtual collectables to the whole experience, and you give gamers endless possibilities that make the gaming experience worthwhile.

Furthermore, developers could create games that operate similar to Reddit’s Karma scoreboard and have players earn points, downvote or upvote other players.

Better monetisation

Mike Brusov, co-founder and CEO at Cindicator, believes that “in the next five years gaming will become an even bigger business.” Given that the industry is expected to be worth more than US$90 billion by 2020, there is no better time to introduce better monetisation tools for developers and gamers.

Brusov believes that gaming is among the industries that are most likely to put blockchain in use “as game assets become an increasingly important source of revenue.”

From as early as 2014, blockchain-enabled gaming apps like HunterCoin and CryptoKitties have proven that even basic level crypto-collectables can be used to express value within a game and improve opportunities for revenue both for the developers and the gamers.

Blockchain can also enable a trustless exchange of in-game items (such as virtual outfits) through smart contracts to further enable the industry to become lucrative. Already, reports are showing that trading virtual items in video games is estimated to be a US$50 billion industry.

Steve Bannon, a political strategist, and former investment banker are arguably one of the first individuals to exploit the lucrative upside of in-game assets and probably the first-ever crypto miner.

It is reported that Bannon would employ an army of “low-wage Chinese workers” to play World of Warcraft to earn in-game gold.

Bannon leveraged multiple accounts to game the system and make millions off selling virtual goods in World of Warcraft for real money.

As trade flows between Southeast Asia and the rest of the globe intensify, the region will naturally become the battleground for startups

Internet of Things, data analytics and Artificial Intelligence are enabling greater efficiency and more collaborative models in the US$4-trillion logistics industry, and it continues to grow exponentially as consumer expectations evolve. Incumbent players are re-evaluating business models and increasing investments into technology to ensure competitiveness, optimise effectiveness, and drive efficiencies.

As per an estimate, 50 per cent of large global companies will be using AI, advanced analytics or IoT in supply chain operations by 2023.

The newly-launched Reefknot Investments (a JV between Temasek Holdings and Kuehne + Nagel International Swiss transport and logistics company), is looking to cash in on this opportunity. The Singapore-based VC firm has just announced a US$50M fund, which will look to invest in tech-enabled logistics & supply chain startups, globally.

In this interview with e27, Reefknot’s MD Marc Dragon sheds lights on the global logistics space and the fund’s plans.

What prompted Temasek and Kuehne + Nagel to come together to launch Reefknot? What are the objectives of the fund? What is your investment philosophy?

While Reefknot Investments is a 50-50 joint venture from Temasek and Kuehne + Nagel, I can’t comment on the reasons for my two Limited Partners (LPs) to come together to launch Reefknot.

However, I can share that while the primary objective of the fund is financial in nature, the overarching objective is to identify and support startups with the potential to transform the supply chain and logistics industry.

Our investment philosophy is to invest in high-growth technology companies pushing new frontiers within the supply chain and logistics space. Beyond the pure financial investment, we further leverage our ecosystem of partners to support our portfolio companies with the necessary domain or technical expertise.

Our platform provides founders access to the business insights of Temasek, the logistics and supply chain expertise of Kuehne + Nagel, and an ecosystem of high-value partners who will bring added support to help accelerate the startup’s business growth.

We are very selective about the startups that we shortlist, first and foremost of which is if their core technologies and/or business model are truly differentiated, and we have line of sight of potential industry impact. The founder or founding team is also highly important for us, and we would need to have confidence in their ability to bring their business to the level we jointly aspire them to.

Startups see us as an active strategic investor, and we aspire to support our highly-curated portfolio companies with whatever means we have at our disposal.

Can you share the names of your other LPs?

As of now, Temasek and Kuehne + Nagel are our only two LPs.

Will the fund invest only in supply chain & logistics companies? Which other verticals and geographies will you target?

The realm of supply chain and logistics is vast, and within that, we are specifically targeting several solution areas, including AI/deeptech, digital logistics, and trade finance.

As this is a global fund, there are more than sufficient opportunities in this space, and we are confident that our unique focused proposition, puts us in a very strong position globally to not only identify to invest in the select transformational startups, but also to provide the necessary financial, domain, and business development support for these startups.

What opportunities do you see in Singapore and in Southeast Asia?

The global supply chain & logistics industry is on the cusp of transformation, and Southeast Asia (SEA) is very much at the forefront of this. Also, the rise of the consumer class in SEA will be a significant factor with e-commerce projected to grow by 32 per cent to almost US$90 billion by 2025. As trade flows between Southeast Asia and the rest of the globe intensify, the region will naturally and increasingly become the battleground for both global startups, as well as incumbent companies in this space.

Singapore, with its strategic location and reputation as a world-class logistics and financial hub, will likely play a key regional-centric role in facilitating opportunities for companies seeking to shape this future by leveraging on new technologies and business models. That being said, it would be necessary for startups to adopt the ‘glocalisation’ mode of design and thinking, which includes the localisation of such technologies and business models within the individual Southeast Asian countries as well.

While there are quite a few funds in the region, there has been a slight decline in terms of fund deployment because there is speculation that VCs are just waiting for the impending economic recession to happen. What is your view?

We are investing for the medium to long term, and while we take into consideration the risks associated with the macro-economic climate as part of our commercial and financial analysis for each shortlisted company, we will invest if the opportunity fulfills our primary criteria.

Some others think that there aren’t that many good companies to back in Southeast Asia…

We have had multiple interactions with various startups within Southeast Asia, and I can say with certainty that many have the ability to grow, win, and potentially dominate within Southeast Asia. There are a select few that have their eyes on Asia and beyond, and if well supported, have the potential to compete with the world’s best.

Do you think the rise of super apps and decacorns in the region has limited the chances of budding startups?

Many super apps and decacorns work very closely with niche startups. These ecosystems can be symbiotic in nature, and can potentially nurture startups within their umbrellas.

In addition, each startup has its own DNA and potential for growth. Some have the potential to be the next unicorn, and some might be acquired by the said unicorn/decacorn.

That being said, the interplay between the specific solution area the startup is focusing in, their core technologies and business models, the capabilities of the founders, as well as the capabilities of their supporting ecosystem have much to do on how large or successful they will be.

As the supply chain & logistics industry faces a period of unprecedented change driven by digitalisation and evolving customer expectations, why the market needs someone like Reefknot Investments?

There are few funds globally that specifically focus on investing and nurturing especially Series A/B supply chain and logistics technology startups.

From our engagements in the industry, there are typically three areas that startups see us of value — the knowledge and know-how of the supply chain & logistics industry, the understanding of new and upcoming technologies and their applications to the industry, and finally, we are active investors that support the startups/founders.

We will use this focus to our advantage, to not only curate and actively support potentially industry transformational startups, but we expect to also contribute to the broader ecosystems that we are involved in through a global think-tank initiative.

How Reefknot will consolidate and leverage an ecosystem of high-value partners to bring added support and help accelerate business growth?

The world is facing explosive global technology developments and growth, especially in emerging economies and cities in the Asia Pacific. Companies across global value chains are increasingly re-evaluating business models and investing in technology to optimise the capture of demand and improve cost and operational efficiencies.

This trend drives our initiative — which is to launch a think-tank that is not only looking to synergise new business models and technologies, but also create a community of industry experts to support and sustain the growth in the logistics and supply chain space.

People usually respond better to such visuals that tell a story

“Clutter and confusion are not attributes of data – they are shortcomings of design.” – Edward Tufte

So, what is data visualisation?

Well, data visualisation is a coherent way to communicate quantitative content visually. Depending on its attributes, the data can be represented in various ways, such as pie charts, bar charts, line graphs, scatter plot, or map. 

The image below is an excellent example of great data visualisation.

Source: graphics.wsj.com

Data visualisations should be visually appealing, useful, and never misleading.

Hence, web designers must adhere to the best practices in data visualisation and come up with the best way to present the data set visually. Today, most of the web design companies in NYC are implementing the data visualisation best practices to deliver user-engaging designs for their clients. 

Why do you need to use data visualisation?

As per IBM, every day, 2.5 quintillion bytes of data are being created.

As the world is becoming more and more connected with a large number of electronic devices, this data volume will continuously grow exponentially. Our human brain is not capable of comprehending all these data without drawing some abstract analogy. 

Image Source: Toptal

Big data becomes useless if it cannot be consumed and comprehended in a meaningful and useful way. This is why data visualisation has become so important not only in web design techniques but also in economics, science, services related to healthcare, and many more. 

Here is a list of 5 data visualisation best practices in web design:

 

1. Know your audience

The first and foremost step to create an impressive data visualisation is to have a clear idea of what you want to say and who your target audience is. 

You need to have a clear idea of what kind of questions your target audience cares about and what kind of answers your data visualisation is delivering to them. Not everyone processes data in the same way. Hence, defining a clear purpose through data visualisation is crucial.

For instance, a sales manager and a chief financial officer have different perspectives to understand profitability on a probability dashboard.

Hence, to create the perfect data visualisation, you need to make sure that you know your target audience well and accordingly design data visualization to which your audience can relate the most.

2. Show data using visual features

A variety of charts like line charts, bar charts, pie charts, scatter plots, etc. are available to present data in the best way. 

Here’s an example of using bar charts.

Source: Our World in Data

Now, which chart to use where entirely depends on the expertise of the designer’s artistic and creative mind! The right chart will not only make the data easy-to-understand but also present it in the most accurate light.

Well, to make the right choice of visual feature, you need to consider what type of data you are conveying and who your target audience is.

3. Use visual hierarchy and messaging and create a narrative flow

The best-in-class data visualisations can tell intriguing stories. These stories can turn raw data into useful information. Now, these stories can emerge from outliners, correlations, or trends in the data. 

If you are thinking that data visualisation is all about showing numbers only then you are wrong! How can you tell a great story without words? Here comes the utilisation of messaging. With the right visual hierarchy, you can guide the reader step by step through the data.

4. Label data points directly

To make it easily understandable what an optical element is representing, it is essential to label it. 

Many designers use labels to tell the readers which colours or which symbols are representing what in the charts. However, it puts an unnecessary strain on the readers’ eyes and minds as they are forced to look back and forth between the data and the labels.

As a better alternative, you can label the data points directly on the chart.

Yes, sometimes it is a bit challenging for the designer, but being able to overcome the challenge is the key to success for a skilled and creative designer! You can’t let your readers go through the pain just because you want to skip some extra work. 

5. Design iteratively

Data visualisation should be done in such a way that it is not only easily understandable to customers but also can deliver the best results.

To do so, once you get the list of requirements, start with designing the concept proofs along with the prototypes.

Then, evoke feedback in an interactive setting and accordingly, revise it. It is better to avoid analysis paralysis. 

Wrapping up

The best data visualisations communicate a data set effectively and clearly by using graphics. It creates an engaged, data-driven business culture.

To encourage this encouragement further, you can send scheduled email reports and metric-driven notifications.

Understanding your corporate culture, your audience, along with human nature as a whole, is the key to proper data visualisation.
