LVCG is pleased to provide an update on its investment in Start.art. As announced on 3 May 2021 the Company has now invested £1 million for a 16.3% equity shareholding in Start.art an online art and digital art platform. A soft launch was planned for June 2021 and the Start.art has announced via press launch in Seoul earlier this morning (see www.start.art) that this has now taken place with the first curated artists onboarded with the full launch including the NFT division of the platform planned for later in the year.
