Article text

On 8 October 2024, the University of Luxembourg published a feature on Emblem and its founding story. The article introduced the project through the work of Daniel Michels and Miguel Curtido Linares, explaining how Emblem rethinks souvenirs as digital collectibles shaped by place, memory, and artistic interpretation.

The university article is important because it documents the project's entrepreneurial roots inside Luxembourg's academic ecosystem. It also captures the product logic clearly: visitors discover a location, unlock an artwork through presence, and keep a collectible digital reminder that carries emotional and cultural meaning.

That early institutional visibility helped frame Emblem as more than a travel utility. It presented the project as a cultural platform with room to support artists, partnerships, and future formats such as passports, thematic routes, and richer forms of creative media.
