METAVRSE is a technology company advancing e-commerce through its proprietary, web-based 3D development engine. The platform enables brands to create, manage, and scale immersive virtual worlds and interactive product showcases accessible across all devices without requiring special downloads. This focus on accessibility and high-fidelity graphics positions METAVRSE as a key provider of infrastructure for the next generation of Web3 commerce.
The company's flagship product, TheMall, is a photorealistic virtual shopping center that utilizes the Hedera Token Service (HTS) for minting assets. Within its virtual spaces, brands can build 3D storefronts stocked with digital products and services secured on the Hedera blockchain network. For example, virtual real estate, such as floors and parcels within TheMall, is delivered and owned as NFTs on the Hedera network.
METAVRSE aims to simplify 3D spatial space design and development in the same way Canva made digital art and graphic design accessible for creative users. It has a slate of Fortune 500 clients including Microsoft, MasterCard, JP Morgan and numerous others.

Porini Foundation Nature Collectibles is an initiative by the Swiss-based Porini Foundation that leverages blockchain technology to create a sustainable funding model for nature conservation. The project aims to connect a global community of collectors with real-world conservation efforts, providing a transparent and direct way to support the protection of endangered species and their habitats.
At the core of the initiative are Nature Collectibles, which are unique digital representations of a species, also known as NFTs for Conservation (NFTCs). Each collectible is a "digital twin" of a real animal and is linked to a specific, on-the-ground conservation project in a protected area. These digital assets can be purchased, collected, and traded through a dedicated mobile app. One hundred percent of the proceeds from the initial sale of a Nature Collectible go directly to the conservation actors in the field, with the Porini Foundation covering all transaction fees.
The entire Nature Collectibles ecosystem is built on the Hedera network. The Hedera Token Service (HTS) is used to mint the NFTs, ensuring their uniqueness and providing a secure and transparent record of ownership. All transactions are recorded on the Hedera public ledger, allowing donors to see their contributions in real-time.

SaucerSwap is a decentralized exchange (DEX) and automated market maker (AMM) protocol built on the Hedera blockchain network. It provides permissionless swapping services for Hedera Token Service (HTS) tokens.
The platform allows users to trade between Hedera-based assets and enables users to become liquidity providers by depositing HTS tokens into liquidity pools where they earn a share of the trading fees generated by those pools. Additionally, it offers yield farming programs which allow liquidity providers to stake LP tokens for further rewards.
SaucerSwap has its own native asset, the SAUCE token, which is used for platform governance through a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) as well as for staking and incentivizing liquidity. The platform aims to be a foundational component of the DeFi landscape on Hedera by providing essential infrastructure for token exchange and liquidity services to the network's users and developers. It also prioritizes user and network security through decentralized management and third-party security audits for smart contracts.

Turtle Moon is a Web3 software development and solutions company that functions as a core infrastructure builder for the Hedera ecosystem. It focuses on creating open-source tools, services, and standards that empower developers and accelerate the growth of decentralized applications on the Hedera network.
One of Turtle Moon's most significant contributions is the creation of the HCS-20 standard, a framework for issuing and managing fungible tokens using the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS). This standard provided an efficient, low-cost alternative to smart contracts for tokenization. They have also developed and open-sourced a suite of "Turtle Moon Tools" for NFT minting and management, making it easier for creators to launch projects on the network.
Beyond infrastructure, Turtle Moon is an active participant in the Hedera community, closely associated with leading the technical development for projects like HGraph Punks. By developing foundational protocols, open-sourcing their tools, and building applications, Turtle Moon plays a vital role in making the Hedera network more accessible, functional, and robust for developers and users alike.
