Google, Amazon and Facebook changed everything and suddenly everyone was online. Of course Apple, Microsoft, AOL and others had been laying the groundwork with computing infrastructure for years and created the environment for the Internet to flourish, but it was Google and Facebook that allowed everything to “scale,” to a point where there were no limits to how many people could join the party.
Disruptors like Expedia, Uber and AirBnB have reshaped how we book services and helped create the “sharing economy.” Streaming through YouTube, Netflix and Zoom changed how we consume and communicate information. LinkedIn connects us professionally and Twitter has replaced traditional news, while services like Instagram, Snap, WhatsApp, Tinder, TikTok and more have changed our daily lifestyles. The list goes on.
This book is a compilation of essays by entrepreneurship students from all over the world, to shed light on the Metaverse and the investment opportunities that come with it.
Regardless of whether you believe the negative statements about the future of virtual reality, it is a great time to learn about the Metaverse and seriously consider where it will go. Who better to consult with than our youth, who have the future in their hands and have grown up digital? Formulate your own opinions and let the students’ references be your starting point to dive deeper.
The future of the Metaverse will not be dictated by one company but by the investments of money, time and energy by the many who are curious and ready for potentially the next big thing. Surely the Internet will evolve considerably and we will not be stuck in the two dimensional online world forever. With this evolution comes ethical challenges and great financial opportunity. Use this book to get you started now – be ready!
