There are countless competition shows on TV, but for Gen Z, there is no competition platform on their medium of choice – mobile.
Based in Austin, Texas, DanceFight is the world’s first mobile video competition platform. We are moving quickly into blockchain with our own coin-based game economy, NFTs and a presence in the Metaverse in partnership with Animoca Brands and The SandBox.
DanceFight has started with a focus on dance but will expand to other user generated content verticals (and to a more all-encompassing brand) including singing, bball trick shots, comedy, rap – you name it! DanceFight will gamify the social experience with voting, leaderboards, levels, rewards, accolades and more.
And while building and scaling this first-of-its-kind platform, our mission and top priority is to create the safest, most inclusive, diverse and inspiring community for young people on the planet! In 2020, we won MassChallenge’s top award for social impact. To learn about DanceFight’s origin story — how it was born out of an international non-profit uniting youth from all over the world — check out How It Started.
Sony Music is an equity holder as well as acclaimed artists Pitbull and Andre3000. Sony and Warner have full catalog deals in place with us and UMG is coming onboard soon. Deutsche Telekom is also an investor and strategic partner in Europe.
It’s a top priority for us to not only create a user community that’s safe, inclusive, diverse and inspiring, but also a team that reflects these values as well. We’re lucky to already have an amazing team made up of people who are deeply passionate about what we can achieve and put out into the world together.
DanceFight has launched in both the App Store and Google Play Store.
