The Intersection: XR - Business - Creativity

How could we transform the development and application of XR (extended reality) and AI (artificial intelligence) technologies by focusing on human needs and creativity? Our event presents themes to inspire and challenge you, with the aim to foster collaborations between industry and academia. Targeted at companies from diverse sectors—examples including construction, architecture, games, media, consumer business, and maritime—the event explores how human-centered and creative approaches can shape the future of technology and business. Join us to discover new possibilities.
