The metaverse is a complex concept to understand but promises to be a huge opportunity for Partners.
Although it is continually evolving, the metaverse is an enhanced internet experience, able to be accessed by a number of unique virtual and Extended Reality (XR) technologies.
No matter what the industry or application, a solid infrastructure is key – how devices plug-in and deliver seamless, real-time collaboration experiences.
Partner with Aruba and Ingram Micro to fully realise the opportunities and benefits on offer.
Because the network infrastructure is your doorway to accessing greater profits
The opportunity is limited only by imagination
Help customers close the perceived gaps between digital and physical realities. Virtual versions of people, objects and landscapes allow us to explore brand new environments, problem-solve and develop ideas through virtual experiences.
According to research from Emergen Research last year, the metaverse was valued at $47.69 billion in 2020 and would reach $829 billion by 2028
