The metaverse at work
Think the metaverse hype was, well, just hype? Think again. While the initial excitement surrounding consumer applications for metaverse is fading, new research from Nokia and EY shows that companies around the world have been quietly and calmly ‘putting the metaverse to work’ - deploying both enterprise and industrial metaverse use cases and seeing significant benefits from doing so.
If you are contemplating questions like - what enterprise and industrial metaverse use cases are worth deploying now within my organization? What are the critical enabling technologies I should care about? Who are the right partners to consider? - then join Nokia and EY experts for six short, but insightful, discussions that draw from the research findings, supported by industry expertise.
Make sense of the metaverse
The metaverse. Is it a place in virtual reality? Is it a new economy? Is it a new technology? With so much talk, it can be hard to pin down what it is exactly. Yet early versions of the metaverse have been creeping into our lives for years – such as virtual spaces like Second Life, multiplayer online games like Fortnite, and mobile AR games like Pokémon GO. And our physical and digital realities are continuing to fuse each day. Join our experts for a forward looking discussion about the potential of this exciting new opportunity for businesses and consumers. Together, let’s make sense of the metaverse and prepare for an immersive future.
Putting Industry 4.0 to work
There’s a good reason why the Industry 4.0 hype cycle has been in overdrive for years: digitalized processes and operations are now “table stakes” if enterprises across all industries are to stay competitive. But are the recent pandemic-driven investments in digitalization paying off? And what might be holding companies back from fully embracing Industry 4.0? Join our panel of experts as they assess the current state of Industry 4.0 — and offer compelling insights into how common digitalization roadblocks can be overcome as we work to build a future.
