DXC Technology Identifies Five Ways the Metaverse will Transform Lives and Business

In the next five years, the 3D world of the metaverse will transform our lives and businesses in several profound ways. Here are five of the most significant Metaverse possibilities:

1. Workplace collaboration will never be the same again

The metaverse will become part of daily work for a growing number of employees. Instead of staring at a grid of 2-dimensional faces on a videoconferencing screen, colleagues will be able to choose their seat at a virtual table, pop out of the room for a break and even go on a virtual walk with their boss.

2. Large scale professional events will go virtual

Rather than flying in for expos, summits, and training days, executives and politicians will be logging on from their chosen location ⁠— minimizing costs and helping us reduce the carbon impact of travel in the process. It is one of Metaverse possibilities, they will be able to do many of the same things as they would in a traditional event.

Whether that’s Erling Haaland of Manchester City, Robert Lewandowski of Barcelona or Lionel Messi of Paris Saint-German, fans might not have to wait too long ⁠— all three clubs have already established a presence in the metaverse. 

4. Brands will express themselves in new ways

Louis Vuitton, Adidas, Gucci, Coke and Nike are among a growing list of brands to set up shop in the metaverse, alongside car companies like Nissan, Toyota and Ferrari, which have all started offering virtual customer experiences.
