iazzu GmbH

Ever since founding iazzu GmbH in 2016, founder Nico Kunz had his eyes on the world of digital from the get-go, bridging the gap between artists creating, galleries curating, and people collecting. Going digital is often a challenge for gallerists and artists, and in light of Covid-19, digitalization has become more vital for most exhibitors than ever. That’s why iazzu GmbH do the work for you — so you can focus entirely on your passion. The app creates an intuitive and tailor-made space to impress collectors and art lovers in the digital world. 

“Artists are defined by their talent to develop and produce unique and unusual objects and experiences. Today’s generation of artists have grown into a world dominated by online experiences and platforms. As such, the artworld is rife with a unique potential and talent for innovative and disruptive thinking. Can artists create their own successful startup (ArtUp) companies, while maintaining their artistic core? Can museums turn into innovation hubs? Can collectors turn into investors? I believe the global tech market is about to experience some of its most exciting moments in the very near future.”

– Tsila Hassine, Senior Member of iazzu GmbH
