Tech greats, startups and young opinion leaders meet tomorrow in Turin on the prospects of the Metaverse, a virtual expansion of the real world, where 350 million people already live generating a virtual goods market of about 54 billion dollars a year.
The opportunity to illustrate the new trends is the first Metaverse Festival in Italy, scheduled for tomorrow, 11 October, from 9 to 18.30, at the Duomo delle Ogr - Officine Grandi Riparazioni in Turin, with prestigious partners such as the European Parliament, the European Commission, European Year of Youth, the Piedmont Region, the Municipality of Turin, the Italian Institute of Technology.
The event, organized by Angi - National Association of Young Innovators, in collaboration with the Turin Ogrs,
aims to attract brands and investors eager to understand the potential of this new sector by placing the emphasis on young Italian talents who represent the future of the country.
Augmented and Virtual Reality, Blockchain and iWeb3, crypto art, are just some of the components of the Metaverse that brings benefits to companies and consumers thanks to the union between physical and virtual reality.
"Like Angi, we have always been open to pursuing new technological paradigms and for this reason we want to live as protagonists in the new immersive world. Creating, in fact, a reality in which men and machines can collaborate represents our mission whose key principle is always that of 'humanitas. The realization of the Metaverse Festival, in fact,
was born from the desire to give priority to those who have distinguished themselves in this field by designing a future with new digital strategies to be adopted in vital sectors.
We chose the city of Turin, and specifically the Piedmont region, because, in addition to its sensitivity to innovation, it was also the first in Italy to have presented its metaverse "explains Gabriele Ferrieri, president of Angi.
