    I’m please to announce the first VRBusiness event, the London Virtual Reality Business Meetup on Nov 22nd 2016 @ WeWork Moorgate.

    We wanted to find an event that had a focus on VR (and AR/MR) from a business and commercial point of view rather than from just on the gaming side. We couldn’t find one, so we decided to grab the bull by the horns and get one started.

  9. Nick says:

    Please check if the icvr.org conference is real. A quick check on their website, produced some skeptical information like no registration form. They list a university professor as a committee member, but when contacted, he denied knowing anything about the conference. They claim to be in Hong Kong this year.
