Passed down from parents to children for more than 75 years, the worldwide phenomenon The Little Prince is a philosophical tale of a grown-up meeting his inner child, a young prince.

We are grateful for this opportunity to enter a new realm of possibilities.” Said Mr. Olivier d’Agay, head of the Saint Exupéry Estate.

“Medialink sees this partnership as the next evolution in the collectible industry. The Little Prince NFT gives consumers a brand-new experience when they own this innovative piece of digital asset.” said Ms Noletta Chiu, Managing Director of Medialink Animation International Limited.

Through the VeVe platform, fans can showcase their digital collections in the app’s virtual showroom as epic 3D dioramas, as well as virtually visit, comment on and like showrooms from other collectors. VeVe also offers an augmented reality (AR) photo mode that allows collectors to interact with every digital collectible in 3D, as well as share their collectibles through VeVe’s in-app social feed or on external social platforms.
