What Trophee does
Trophee Digital Pte Ltd is a Singapore-incorporated entertainment technology venture builder operating across B2B community platform development and consumer-facing fan products. Founded in 2021 with 1-10 employees, the company builds purpose-built digital community spaces, audience activation tools, and scalable technology infrastructure for entertainment brands, IP owners, sponsors, agencies, and event organizers seeking authentic fan engagement mechanisms beyond traditional social media or marketing campaigns.
The company's product portfolio comprises three main lines. ZAN, announced in July 2023 at Anime Expo, is a multimedia franchise combining a Play-to-Earn blockchain game, an NFT collection based on Yoshitaka Amano's 300+ piece DEVA ZAN artwork, an 18-chapter manga series (13 chapters released), and an anime adaptation co-produced with JAYMEN TOKYO and GOOD WIN. Coser.ID, launched in July 2025, is a portfolio-driven social platform for cosplayers supporting 22 languages with invitation-based onboarding. A third line offers custom B2B digital community platform development for entertainment clients.
Trophee's revenue model spans professional services for B2B platform development, one-time primary sales of NFT collections, and transaction-based economics from play-to-earn gaming. The company has raised approximately $1,000,000 in disclosed seed funding (two 2021 rounds from Divergence Capital, Exnetwork Capital, BlackDragon, and IR21 Capital) and is led by CEO Elvin Li and CFO/CXO Young Shin. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, no enterprise customer logos are named, and no revenue figures have been released.
