What is the Metaverse & Why you should care about it?

The Metaverse has moved beyond science fiction movies like Ready Player One to become an important reality. Fortune magazine recently said that the Metaverse might just be the most important tech trend since the iPhone. It is so important that Facebook changed the name of its parent company to Meta and spent more than $10 billion on its Metaverse projects in 2021.

Our interview with Sebastien Borget, Co-Founder & COO of The Sandbox, one of the world’s leading Metaverse platforms. According to a recent report, The Sandbox accounted for 62% of the more than $500 million of virtual real estate sales in 2021. Sebastien was recently named as one of the Top 30 Most Influential People in the Metaverse.

Many big brands are moving to the Metaverse, including Samsung, Nike, Zara, Ralph Lauren, Walmart, Disney, Adidas, Warner Music and, most interestingly, global professional services firm, PWC.
