What is this about?

The Extended Reality (XR) Market is valued at USD 26 Billion in 2020 and is expected to reach USD 463 Billion in 2026, registering a healthy CAGR of over 60% in the next 5 years. So what does XR really mean? It refers to all forms of immersive technologies, such as augmented reality, virtual reality, and mixed reality, as well as other future realities such technologies might bring.

 

In this webinar, we will explore what are the varied applications of XR technologies, and how it may make business sense for your organisation. The recent pandemic has also pushed many companies to think about potential interactions with employees and customers using extended reality. Engaging the audience during an XR experience is also important, and one popular method is gamification. Hear from our experts on how you may increase interactions and produce more effective XR content.

 

Who should attend:

  • Organisations with an interest in understanding and adopting XR technologies for your business
  • Technology companies or freelance developers developing XR solutions
  • If you are looking to expand your knowledge about XR and its applications
