The Liberty Gaming Guild is a ground-breaking ‘play-to-earn’ project that aims to provide a gateway for gamers to gain access to expensive and inaccessible NFTs within blockchain gaming and an ecosystem for them to learn and thrive within the new gaming community. The gaming ecosystems’ goal is to create a thriving community through rewards and incentives and educate new users on topics such as DeFi, CeFi, and Blockchain.
The Liberty Gaming Guild has enlisted the assistance of several blockchain experts to help bring the project’s vision to fruition. The latest is Maurizio Barbieri, a self-described “giant nerd” who has joined the Liberty core team as Chief Commercial Officer. Maurizio, who has held several positions with some of the biggest global companies in tech and media, aims to bring invaluable experience, vision, and an unwavering commitment to growth, development, and relationship building.
There’s been a hugely important addition to the Liberty core team, and it’s filled us with incredible excitement for our future🚀

Maurizio Barbieri has always been interested in technology, sports, and media. Maurizio moved to the digital field in 1999 after a successful career as a professional basketball coach. This started when he joined MP Web, the digital media arm of the Media Partners Group. He was a key member of the core team that built MP Web into a market leader in producing and distributing media content.
When Infront Sports and Media acquired the entire MP Group, Maurizio Barbieri’s digital media career advanced to a new level as he was named MD of Infront Advanced Media Solutions. From 2008 to 2012, he worked across Europe and Asia, which led to a new chapter in his career in which he founded and raised capital for two startups. Finally, after four eventful years, Maurizio returned to Asia, where he accepted the position of head of sports for Samsung Asia in Singapore and assisted in creating and launching the prestigious Samsung SportsFlow.
Maurizio then joined Twitter in 2017 to help grow sports and gaming communities and ecosystems. He significantly impacted the company by generating new revenue streams from content creation by developing programs for the South-East Asian audience. In addition, he accomplished a lot with Twitter in four years by assisting in forming partnerships with media companies, creating new ways for them to make money and connect with their communities.
Maurizio has developed a reputation as an outside-the-box strategist, creating visions and plans to help create opportunities and solve problems. As a result, he has established himself as a leading professional in the sports and gaming industries.
Maurizio is beginning a new chapter with Liberty Gaming Guild to guide them to the same success he has had throughout his career. He joins the Liberty Gaming Guild core team to assist them in lowering the entry barrier to participating in blockchain-based games, like Axie Infinity, by lending in-game NFTs to its dedicated community gamers (‘scholars’).
