The Global Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Virtual Reality (GCAIVR) is committed to fostering innovation, collaboration, and knowledge sharing. Our primary objective is to provide a productive platform for the brightest minds in AI and VR, encompassing academic researchers, industry professionals, and enthusiasts. We strive to enable these diverse voices to exchange ideas, experiences, and insights that drive technological advancements. We firmly believe in the potential of AI and VR as transformative technologies. Hence, we encourage showcasing practical applications across sectors, inspiring participants to visualize novel possibilities. Simultaneously, we acknowledge the challenges and ethical concerns these technologies present. Part of our mission is to facilitate dialogues to identify solutions and outline responsible usage guidelines. The GCAIVR also serves as a training ground, offering workshops and practical sessions to enhance technical skills and strategic know-how. Moreover, the event is an avenue for networking, allowing delegates to forge meaningful connections across disciplines and geographical boundaries. We see ourselves not just as a conference, but as an incubator for future trends. Our goal is to shape the course of AI and VR research and applications, ultimately steering the direction of these fast-evolving fields. This is what GCAIVR stands for, and we invite you to join us in this exciting journey.

We are entering the time of the metaverse, and while there has been much attention to how it will affect consumers, it has the potential to redefine how enterprises disrupt their industries. The metaverse is on the horizon, affecting industries as diverse as healthcare, tax and accounting, law, fashion, and entertainment. According to McKinsey, in the first five months of 2022 alone, more than $120 billion have been invested in building out metaverse technology and infrastructure. Early forms of enterprise solutions within the metaverse are already on the market, and Citi has estimated a market between $8-13 trillion by 2030. Thus, now is the time to start thinking about how this new wave of online interaction can benefit your business. In the past year, almost $2 billion have been spent on virtual real estate by large and small companies racing to get into the metaverse. Enterprise Metaverse Expo helps decision-makers, technologists, and developers understand the value of the metaverse for their businesses regardless of industry.
