Some are working on streaming services, some are developing mixed reality technology, some are working on shared music experiences, and some are working on social meeting spaces. To them VR is all about connection across the metaverse. Join Adam Arrigo (TheWaveVR), Alex Schwartz (Owlchemy Labs), Bruce Wooden (AltspaceVR) and Tadhg Kelly (VREAL) as they discuss the social side of virtual reality.
