NOTAS: | "The Metaverse has emerged as the next big thing after the mobile internet, and the term ”Metaverse” has exploded in popularity over the last years. However, the phrase is often used without a definition, and when it does have a definition, it is often rather vague – and the implications are often challenging to comprehend. This is the first-of-its-kind global delphi study seeking to source the collective knowledge and perspectives of a diverse panel of experts on the future of the metaverse. We curated a diverse panel of experts involved with the metaverse to assess a series of hypothesis and propositions in relation to the future of the metaverse towards 2030: What it is, what will it become, when it will be implemented, how impactful it will be, what it will be used for, and much more." |
