She believes that building the metaverse is no different than any of these other established domains that she has served to-date, and is motivated to contribute to building the metaverse based on the same open and interoperability principles.
In this episode, you’ll learn about how geospatial data can help accelerate building a metaverse that is as useful for entertainment.
