Industrial Metaverse
An IEEE Metaverse Webinar

This virtual webinar will aim to highlight and share ideas on the expected evolution of the Metaverse. These ideas stem from the work being done in the FDC Metaverse Initiative that foresees the Metaverse as the future space to live in; comprising both the digital and the physical world.

• It is possibly the one less known, yet it is the one generating more revenues today, 17B$ versus the 5B$ generated by the consumer metaverse, and expected to grow over 100B$ by 2030, versus 50B$ foreseen for the consumer metaverse.
• It is expected to adopt the most advanced technologies as being expensive may not be affordable in the consumer metaverse. As technology evolves the cost of technologies decreases, hence what we see today in the industrial metaverse will be seen tomorrow in the consumer metaverse.
