Special Edition - Is This the On-Ramp to the Metaverse for the Masses? - Andy Tian, CEO Asia Innovations Group and Alvin Wang Graylin, China President at HTC

We wanted to have a discussion about "The Metaverse for the Masses" and we could not have asked for two better guests.  

Andy Tian, the CEO of Asia Innovations Group, and Alvin Wang Graylin, the China President at HTC,  have not only known each other since their days at MIT but are also long-time experts in this field.

Some of the topics we covered:

• What is the metaverse and how would we define it?
• The necessity of technological on-ramps, awareness, and literacy
• Emerging market users and what they really want from the metaverse
• Asia Innovations Group's metaverse white paper
• Is blockchain technology necessary for the widespread use of the metaverse?
• Do we sometimes forget how immersive real-life already is?
