Technology moves at a fast pace, and we are constantly being told about the next new thing.  The NBCC and partners EY, aim to keep you up to date through events from our Technological Innovation Forum. 

Have you heard of the ‘Metaverse’?  No, well don’t worry, we can shed some light on this! 

Simply put, the Metaverse is remote 3D technology that is starting to shape our future.  Touted as the successor to the internet, the metaverse refers to a shared, persistent, three-dimensional virtual realm where people interact with objects, the environment and each other through digital representations of themselves or avatars.  It’s amazing but, how could this technology be used for day to day business activities? 

Imagine hosting your meeting with colleagues hundreds of miles apart in the middle of the Colosseum ideating on a virtual whiteboard. Or instead of scrolling a website walking through the aisles of a store, finding your best fit and having it delivered to your doorstep. Or simulating the optimal process manufacturing line to adjust for product variation and minimize bottlenecks; or testing an innovative aircraft wing design without building expensive prototypes.  Isn’t it mind blowing? 

The NBCC have teamed up with EY to share: 

• What exactly is ‘Metaverse’; 
• How can it be used day to day; 
• What are the business benefits to this technology; 
• See for yourself how it works with a live demonstration 

Join our knowledgeable speakers to gain a better understanding of this super technology and how it will begin to creep into day to day life – its more than just for gaming!
