The ‘whats’ and ‘hows’ of the road map in tapping emerging opportunities and meeting the challenges in catapulting the industry to over $30 trillion in 15 years will be discussed when the world’s leading metaverse experts converge in Dubai this week for a first-of-the-kind event.

The Dubai Metaverse Assembly, slated for September 28-29, is expected to see participation of over 300 global experts and more than 40 organisations specialised in the metaverse and virtual worlds applications.

Omar Sultan Al Olama, Minister of State for Artificial Intelligence, Digital Economy and Teleworking Applications, and deputy managing director of DFF said the event would discuss what major technology and private sector companies should do to develop the metaverse industry to tackle challenges to reach the $30 trillion mark in 15 years.

Al Olama said the flagship event will explore the digital economy and identify how governments, businesses and communities can unlock the unlimited potential of the metaverse to create a bolder future.
