The Rails Ahead – Meta­verse event, Oulu

The Finnish Meta­verse Ini­tia­tive is thrilled to present Meta­verse 0.2: Pow­ered by AI. Join us for a day filled with inno­va­tion, inspi­ra­tion, and net­work­ing.

From immer­sive vir­tu­al worlds to aug­ment­ed real­i­ty appli­ca­tions, we will demon­strate how AI is dri­ving the next wave of dig­i­tal trans­for­ma­tion.
