Japan's First Rice Grand Prix Unveils Its Unique Local Agent Platform

The recently announced 'Nippon Rice Grand Prix presented by BitTrade' is set to take place on the unique local connection platform, GLOCAL AGENTS, provided by Digital Entertainment Asset (DEA). This innovative platform engages users to become local "secret agents" for various regions across Japan. Participants join in by answering quizzes, posting on social media, and completing photo missions that highlight regional attractions.

In this event, participants are invited to snap pictures of their bowls of white rice or any rice dishes they create and share them on the platform. Winners will receive rewards such as DEP (DEAPcoin) and support rice that aids in local recovery efforts.

Discovering GLOCAL AGENTS


GLOCAL AGENTS enables players to dive into the hidden food, culture, history, and nature of various regions in a gamified format. Even if you cannot physically visit these areas, users can engage with the platform through their smartphones or PCs. By participating in tasks such as learning about regional information, posting photos, answering quizzes, and reading stories, users can connect with local cultures and create ongoing relationships from afar.

This initiative connects municipalities, businesses, and users on a single platform. Municipalities can attract tourists, promote hometown tax donations, encourage residency, and enhance regional branding. For businesses, this represents an opportunity for community engagement, corporate social responsibility (CSR), and brand interactions. For users, it's a fun way to explore regional delights while potentially earning rewards through their participation.

The concept of 'Kankei Jinkou' pushed by Japan's Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications is the foundation for this initiative. By harnessing gamification, it aims to offer a unique experience that allows anyone to connect with local areas no matter where they are located. This concept transforms digital participation into greater interest in, and support for, local areas.
