Helping You Make Sense Of the Metaverse
The Metaverse has become a focal point within the media, generating discussions on its implications for organisations and the diverse array of “Metaverse” options available. Presently, these Metaverse platforms are competing for dominance, with each offering slightly differing experiences. Furthering this, they operate as distinct ecosystems, each possessing unique strengths, use cases, and functionalities, creating a complex landscape to navigate.
Our role at VRE is to simplify this complexity with guidance on the relevance of these platforms to your organisation and providing strategic insights on leveraging the Metaverse’s potential across diverse applications. This spans areas such as retail, training, recreation, meetings, events, team building, workshops, and brand building.
For organisations operating in a remote capacity, the Metaverse presents a compelling case. Our research demonstrates potential savings of over 50% compared to traditional face-to-face interactions, all while maintaining high levels of engagement.
Consequently, in order to facilitate a comprehensive understanding of the Metaverse, we consistently run pilot programs. These programs allow organisations to experience firsthand the effectiveness and functionality of the Metaverse. If you are interested in exploring the transformative possibilities, do not hesitate to reach out to our consulting team for detailed information on our pilot programs.
Metaverse Consulting
Due to most clients having little to no experience with VR, we begin with an “exploratory” session and guide them through a range of Metaverse worlds. This is because VR needs to be experienced in order to be fully understood, therefore we dive straight into VR with the VR headsets, allowing for the client to fully understand what the metaverse is and how it can be applied.
International Support
Our VR Hire hubs are located across the US, EU, UK, China, and Singapore, ensuring that we have the reach necessary to deliver these services around the globe. Additionally, the VRE team is internationally spread, allowing for further support in local languages.
Hardware Choices
VRE is platform and hardware agnostic, meaning that we use the best platform and hardware that meets the clients project aims. This hardware technology can change quickly with the ever-evolving modern world, therefore we ensure to stay at the forefront of the advancing technology.
We have worked closely with Virtual Reality Experiences on having an executive group meeting in VR. Despite being VR users ourselves before, we were impressed by their VR hire services and their expertise running such experiences at scale. We also embraced their suggestions on what type of demos shall we use to make sure that first time users of VR will get an amazing memorable experience while at the same time understand the clear enterprise use cases of such applications.

There are three key elements to our VR events service:
- Exceptional VR Hire logistics to guarantee all hardware arrives early and safely.

- VRE’s friendly and tech savvy events team on the day working in the Metaverse to welcome your teams, guests, and clients to the event space, providing a memorable, exciting experience for them.
Times since the coronavirus outbreak have proved to be challenging, especially for geographically dispersed teams. Moreover, online conferencing has become the new normal. This got us to question and challenge: How can we bring our project team dispersed across 10+ countries together to celebrate the achievement of an important milestone?
This is when we sought out new means of collaboration and chose Virtual Reality Experiences (VRE) to support us in organizing a first-of-its-kind Virtual Reality Event within our function.
With their expertise, we were able to create a new immersive experience for our team by organizing a corporate-themed conference in VR along with fun and interactive team-building activities whilst learning about the future potential of mixed reality experiences. Delivering keynote speeches in a fully-customized environment, sharing recognition, playing team paintball, and even eating pizza ‘virtually’ were some of our highlights!
Moreover, given that this was the first VR experience for most of us, their hands-on support for the VR hire, onboarding, set-up, and training on the headset was seamless over and above managing the shipment of the headsets to worldwide participants within a two-week timeframe across the globe.
Thank you Mark, Ros, Camila, Alex, Jordan, and the wider VRE Team for making our first virtual team-building experience a memorable one!
