Animoca Brands: AI Competition for Content Creators

The Sandbox and Animoca Brands have launched a four-week AI competition called "Creative Minds Jam #1, Hong Kong." This challenge invites students, developers, and creators to build innovative content creator experiences using Minds by Animoca Brands, an agentic AI platform. The competition offers a US$10,000 prize pool. Participants will explore how agentic AI can help content creators with discoverability, engagement, and workflow. Winners could also be considered for the Minds Investment Programme, which has an allocation of up to US$10 million. Submissions open on July 28, 2026, with a final showcase in early September. No prior AI experience is needed, but Minds agents must be integral to product submissions. Open Campus, a community-led DAO, is the official community partner and will offer workshops and support. This initiative aims to push the boundaries of AI in content creation.
