On the lower ground floor, an educational and training space is featured while the first floor houses an investors club where members can come together.

The first ‘discovery workshop’ that visitors attend at the NFT Factory will be free, with those after being priced at $59. There is a deeper level of training courses too which will be available to individuals and companies, this is priced at $299. In addition to this, public events are set to take place each Thursday.
