NFTIME Co., Ltd. (CEO Park Min-ki) won the grand prize in the global innovation category at the '2025 EdTech Business Model Contest' for its service 'Certi'.
"Certi" is a blockchain-based digital badge service that complies with the Ministry of Education's standard (Open Badge). Badges can be easily issued and managed through KakaoTalk without installing a separate app, and these badges create a "digital portfolio" that demonstrates individual competencies and learning history. Furthermore, it links learning to employment and educational opportunities, creating a virtuous cycle where learning leads to a tangible career. Currently, prestigious universities such as Korea University, Kwangwoon University, and Inha University have implemented "Certi" to effectively verify and manage students' extracurricular activities and project achievements.
CEO Park Min-ki said, "I believe this award is recognition that the future of digital badges, as presented by 'Thirty,' has the potential to thrive not only domestically but also in the global market. I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the officials of the Korea EdTech Industry Association for bestowing such a meaningful award. We will continue to present innovative solutions that contribute to the development of future talent through digital badges."
