Metaverse Village made its debut and a symposium on Metaverse was held in the central city of Da Nang on June 15 within the framework of TECHFEST Vietnam 2022.
A metaverse is a network of 3D virtual worlds focused on social connection. In futurism and science fiction, the metaverse is a hypothetical iteration of the Internet as a single, universal and immersive virtual world that is facilitated by the use of virtual reality and augmented reality headsets.
Vo Duc Anh, Deputy Director of Da Nang’s Innovation and Startup Support Centre and head of the Metaverse Village, said that the village is formed and oriented to become a national gateway for managers, researchers, experts, groups, investment funds, startup organisations, and individuals outside and inside Vietnam to support start-ups, thus contributing to promoting the building of digital economy, digital society and digital citizen, and turning Vietnam into a centre for innovation in the region.
