Alexander Bushnell, CEO of Cosmo, told GamesBeat, "As content and media evolve, Cosmo strives to bridge the gap between platforms and enable series, formats and intellectual property to cross between media, metaverse and web3. Concretely, this means that we build metaverse experiences and creative web3 infrastructure for brands as well as our own original IP, develop and produce games, just as we also do traditional content such as serialized formats for TV and streaming - and each property is equipped with the ability to transition into other spheres.”
