## Description

captivr is a German start-up that secures and authenticates 360-degree video experiences of events on the blockchain. The concept: event visitors receive personalised 360° videos of their experience — and the blockchain entry proves the time, place, and originality of the recording. This protects against forgery and creates a digitally verified proof of ownership.

captivr combines two technology trends: 360° video recording (for immersive experience replay) and blockchain-based authentication. The problem with conventional event souvenirs: photos and videos can be easily forged, edited, or misdated. A blockchain timestamp and hash of the original video irrefutably prove that the content was created at the actual event date and location. This creates a new type of digital collectible: authenticated experience artefacts. For events and theme parks, this opens up a new revenue model: visitors can purchase their personalised 360° experience as a verified digital asset. The captivr start-up was featured as "Founder of the Week" on starting-up.de, demonstrating its relevance to the German start-up ecosystem.

## Challenges

- High initial investments for camera systems and IT infrastructure can pose challenges for smaller parks.
