Metaverse Meetup

Description

The hype around the metaverse is strong, but the potential for metaverse technologies to change how we learn, work, play, shop, and more is huge. How do we separate the hype from the high-potential opportunities and applications, and demonstrate real value in many aspects of our lives, jobs, schools, and more? Come join us for a metaverse meetup with experts sharing information and perspectives with attendees of all expertise levels. Everyone is welcome, and we will come out with guidance for how you and your company can make the most of the metaverse!

All participants must register for this event via Eventbrite. This will be an in-person event.

Join us at argodesign located at 108 W Gibson St, Austin, TX 78704. argodesign has very limited parking, so we encourage utilizing rideshare to get to their studio. The parking lot at argo is not owned nor managed by argo - the owners are very diligent about ticketing if you do not follow the lot signage instructions and pay the parking fee. There is limited street parking around South Congress and several additional nearby garages.
