WHY BUILD COMMUNITY IN VR?

Embrace the power of social presence

When people come together in mixed reality, they feel more engaged, more included and more connected to their company.

Build connections

Mixed reality gives people a greater sense of presence, and provides a more natural way to engage with peers and leaders.

Deepen engagement

Shared interactive experiences are more engaging than VC, and help leaders feel closer to employees.

People and planet

Bringing people together virtually reduces carbon emissions and travel budgets, as well as lost productivity from employee downtime.

Remote town halls and events

Many organisations struggle to bring people together in a single location, whether it's due to rapid growth, international expansion or simply because they've adopted a flexible approach to the office. And yet it's never been more important to share key company messages to make sure that people are on the same page. MR can put everybody in the same room even if they're not in the same country – without the costs, hassle or carbon footprint of physical meetings

Employee onboarding

First impressions last, which is why onboarding is so critical for employee engagement and retention. And yet the onboarding experience has struggled to keep pace since hybrid work hit the mainstream. Mixed reality can provide employees, including remote workers, with a consistent and inclusive onboarding experience that allows them to engage with colleagues, connect with mentors, share knowledge and foster a sense of community.

Accenture

Accenture has built the world's largest VR onboarding programme using 60,000 Meta Quest 2s to connect employees in a virtual office space called the "Nth floor".
