Corporates Living in the New Realities

Description:

Corporates intrigued by the lure of immersive experiences are increasingly investing in virtual and augmented reality technologies to engage, entertain, inform and educate employees, clients, and customers. By some estimates, the XR market is marching towards $60 billion in revenue in the next three years, but what does it look like right now? What are corporates across different industries doing, what are they thinking, and what experiences are they making in VR and AR? Even though these two hyped immersive technologies sound a lot alike, they are used by businesses in very different ways. Hear three tales of living in the new realities of these emerging technologies from innovation leaders on the front lines of the future of XR.
