But what really is Metaverse? How do businesses use it to generate revenues? These questions must be answered before you step into this cutting-edge tech world. So, let’s break down what decision-makers should know to understand the Metaverse better.

Defining Metaverse

To put it in simple words, the Metaverse is one of the biggest innovative evolutions of the internet. It’s an immersive and interactive virtual space where people can interact with each other and digital objects in a 3d environment.

Metaverse offers users boundless possibilities to experience entertainment, connect with others, and purchase products virtually. Sometimes known as Web 3.0, it has the potential to be even more transformative than the Internet.
