Recognise the relevance of virtual worlds early on

Immersive technologies are part of a future in which innovative technologies merge into a larger whole. It promises virtual, three-dimensional worlds - increasingly connected to physical reality. Extended Reality technologies (XR) can profoundly change how companies and consumers interact with objects, services and each other.

The business potential is great, the annual growth rate for XR solutions is around 40 percent. But there are also risks: New technologies require new strategies and new methods to build trust. First and foremost, security for users and their data will be of utmost importance in a decentralised, digital world.

The time to prepare for this begins now. Decision-makers who now set their strategic priorities in the context of immersive technologies will quickly benefit from optimised business processes and potential. Physically present in virtual spaces, virtually present in physical spaces: the possibilities for interacting with internal and external target groups are limitless.
