Dubai, UAE - August, 2025 - Napster (formerly Infinite Reality), the innovation company powering the next generation of digital media and ecommerce, today announced a partnership with Turkish football heavyweight Fenerbahçe to launch a 3D, AI-powered virtual store, - available exclusively through Fenerium, the official retail platform of the club.

Fenerbahçe's virtual store is meeting the moment, offering fans a spatial game-like environment to interact with 3D models of products along with an embodied AI shopping companion that engages in multi-language conversations via real-time video chat - all through Fenerium.

Key Features:

• Accessible via Fenerium's existing website: Customers from around the globe can access the experience directly from the Fenerium website with no application downloads or specialized hardware equipment required.
• 3D merchandising: The branded locker room features over 50 products available to view in 3D, including the club's new Adidas kit.
• AI-powered shopping assistance: Fans can speak via video with an embodied multi-lingual AI companion that helps them explore the site and select products.
• Product Interactivity: Jerseys and other products within the platform are customizable, making the experience even more personalized and interactive.
