Who is the event for?

Anyone curious about virtual reality and keen to experience it first-hand. Marketers, startups, small business owners and tech enthusiasts welcome; no experience with VR necessary.

Why should I attend?

Virtual reality has crossed the hype cycle and is no longer a gimmick or the stuff of sci-fi. Brands are embracing virtual reality in new ways and leading technology companies are investing heavily in this space. This is an opportunity to get up to speed with the latest technologies and trends in VR and to connect with like-minded people interested in this growing sector.
