-- RYU
Apparel Inc. (TSXV:
RYU) (OTCQB:
RYPPF) (FWB: RYAA) ("RYU" "RYPPF"
or the "Company"),
a cutting edge digital lifestyle
brand and creator of award-winning urban athletic apparel that
facilitates human movement, is pleased to announce that it has
signed an advisory agreement with Thomas
Carter, current CEO of
blockchain infrastructure company Total Network
Services and
Founder/Chairman of leading FinTech company Deal
Box, to oversee
architecture and deployment of RYU's Web3 Initiatives. The Company
has now laid out its plan to build an immersive retail ecosystem
that takes the dazzling digital elements of the Metaverse, and
places them at physical locations for customers to discover around
the world.
RYU
Apparel Inc. CEO Cesare Fazari's critically acclaimed lifestyle and
athletic apparel brand alongside his mission of spreading
positivity and respect and bringing hope to youth all over the
world.
Thomas Carter has helped advise
over 500 companies over the last 30+ years and spent the past six
years creating industry leading blockchain technology and services
in FinTech and the Internet of Things.
This year, Carter's company Total
Network Services will facilitate the U.S. government's largest
blockchain implementation to date with the U.S. Census Bureau
helping secure over 500,000 employee devices using their
Universal Communication
Identifier (UCID).
The Company in collaboration
with Rypplzz
will create an immersive retail
ecosystem that pairs customers with the people, places, and things
that enhance their experience beyond commerce, and motivates them
to create healthier, more connected lifestyles.
Carter's take on Rypplzz'
partnership with RYU, "This ecosystem will be a game changer
—disruptive even. Change is disruptive at times, but we will make
sure we provide a seamless end-to-end brand experience that
connects, educates, entertains, and liberates."
Rypplzz has a patented platform
called Interlife® that bridges the digital and physical worlds by
allowing people to efficiently and securely connect with digital
files at precise real-world locations. Their technology is designed to inspire
movement and connection on a global scale seamlessly and easily
in-home and out in the world. Both Rypplzz and RYU center
their brands around an optimized human experience, and align with
RYU's mantra, Movement
Matters.
"...Essentially the
brain is a computer, and the body is a machine.
Our
system is the brain that optimizes the flow and movement of life
itself" noted Josh Pendrick, CEO of Rypplzz
Rypplzz has adapted a
craftsmanship approach to their system, and intentionally designed
it to support their user's digital, physical, and mental life
balance. Both RYU and Rypplzz believe a balanced view of the
Metaverse is imperative when considering the immersive retail
design because life persists beyond
devices.
RYU is set to expand their
digital-physical presence to the United States with exceptional
in-store and at home customer experiences (powered by the Rypplzz
technology ecosystem). RYU and Rypplzz plan on connecting their
customers (and users) by curating one-to-one activations that leave
them feeling invigorated, empowered, and
energized.
