David Whelan. CEO, ENGAGE XR said: "Today's announcement
is just a quick snapshot of what's happening at ENGAGE XR. We will
have more news and updates in the coming months with the launch of
ENGAGE Link expected towards the latter half of this year. With
ENGAGE Link, we are building a completely distributive economic
environment for forward-thinking enterprises and individuals to
build the future of work, commerce and communications.
"ENGAGE Link is the first time that our clients will have
publicly accessible, always on, persistent locations to advertise
their business and services directly to the general public and to
potential clients. Clients can build out their own unique MetaVerse
for private company use or make it available to the wider world on
ENGAGE Link or via their own website using our deep links
system.
"Just as the emergence of the internet changed the world in the late 90s, the professional MetaVerse will change business practices globally with how we communicate with our employees, our customers and each other."
