SINGAPORE, Dec. 8, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Metaverse Blockchain company Coinllectibles™️, a fully owned subsidiary of Cosmos Group Holdings Inc. (OTC: COSG), is pleased to announce the appointment of Terry Lee as the Chief Executive Officer of Coinllectibles Pte Ltd. He will be responsible for growing the market adoption for art and collectibles DOTs (digital ownership tokens) in the region. The appointment will take effect on 1 January 2023.
Lee is an experienced gallerist, and an astute art specialist in Asia Contemporary and Modern Art who specialises in the creation of art funds and art collections. Previously, he has amassed over 25 years of top management, leadership and professional experience as a dynamic and established top executive involved in a broad suite of operations in finance, business development, supply chain, strategic planning and crisis management in the Asia Pacific region. At present, apart from being the founder of Art Seasons Gallery, Lee is also serving as Honorary Secretary and in the Executive Committee of the Art Galleries Association Singapore.
"As Chairman of the Advisory Board at Coinllectibles, I warmly welcome Terry to the executive management team. Prior to his CEO appointment, Terry was serving as Head of Art within the company. With his expertise and, enthusiasm over an illustrious career in the art area, we believe Terry will continue to strengthen our presence within the art and with the collector community and certainly look forward to his leadership and contributions," says Toby O'Connor, Chairman of Advisory Board at Coinllectibles.
Commenting on the appointment, Lee says "I see a lot of untapped potential in the market. The global art market has grown to US$65.1 billion1 in 2021, an increase of 29% from 2020, with China growing strongly with a market share of 20%, which is US$13.4 billion2. There is still high liquidity with traditional buyers as well as new and younger high net worth people coming into the market so I believe the art and high-end collectibles market remains robust. I envision to work on building Coinllectibles' brand to reach a wider audience so that we can successfully penetrate into the art scene and drive collectors to our Metamall. Our technology adoption is also what makes us different from the rest of the NFT companies so we will strongly advocate for DOT acceptance moving forward."
