Online platform for selling artworks 14.02.24

The individual entrepreneur Nigar Novruzzade has created an online platform for the sale of artworks for the first time in Azerbaijan. N. Novruzzade was awarded a "Startup" certificate from the Small and Medium Business Development Agency (KOBİA) for this project.

According to her, N'us Gallery (https://nus.gallery/) is a unique innovative art platform that has no competitor in the domestic market. The platform seeks to bring together artists, designers as well as people involved in art under one roof. Through the platform, designers, artists, and artists from all walks of life can effortlessly sell their works: “I should point out that our platform offers a professional portfolio opportunity. Creative persons can launch their careers by using our platform to build their own audience and portfolio in the local and international markets. Through our platform, buyers and art enthusiasts can also access many artworks. "Modern Technologies" and "NFT" pick our curiosity. We provide a systematic form of the unity of art and technology.”

N. Novruzzade also noted that the platform collaborates with more than 500 artists. The platform currently has over thirty pieces of artworks up there, and more are being added all the time. The works on the platform range in price from 50 to 20,000 manats. The most expensive piece of art that has been sold on the platform to date cost 500 manats: "Our goal is to reinvent the value of art for both local and global markets by fusing art and technology. We strive to compile the works of artists into our database. Concurrently, sales of artworks are conducted through the website. The platform is currently up and running. We believe that in addition to artworks, we should also attract various art forms to the platform. Works of sculpture, handicrafts, etc. might be included here. Art enthusiasts will come together and connect with each other through N'us Gallery, learn more about the capabilities of our platform, and stay up to date on a variety of art-related topics. The purpose of such gatherings is to foster people's creative thinking and artistic knowledge. In addition, there will be stimulating discussions and networking opportunities with individuals interested in all facets of design and the arts."

The entrepreneur went on to say that one of the main goals of its brand is to encourage aspiring artists and others. One of the primary goals of this project is to introduce people in the creative field to the society and inspire them.

N. Novruzzade said that "N'us Gallery" was awarded the "Original idea" nomination among 120 startups in the electronic competition held in Russia as an example of the Azerbaijani startup ecosystem. In addition, the project successfully passed the test stage conducted on 40 startups in Azerbaijan and was accepted into the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) program.
