EVENT DETAILS

I am excited to announce our next meetup will be focused on the topic of eSports in VR. The event will be a partnered event with SAP who is already active in the eSports space & is an official sponsor for the eSports Team Liquid.

The event will start with networking, demos, & a friendly eSports competition featuring the VR game Beat Saber. Then we will have several lightning presentations from the companys that are demoing & a panel conversation featuring eSports experts Christopher Jacobs, Ben Pousada & Will Roberts.

The event will come to a close with the final round of the Beat Saber competition.

Below is the list of Demos & Panelists:

Orlando Rivera, David Rivera & Maria Rivera http://digitalsummit.tv

As a studio, Digitalsummit.TV focuses on wireless, multi-user, social XR & education. In order to pursued this we decided to knock out a multi-user VR game. This has allowed us a way to exercise & explore the issues of creating a multi-user & social VR experience. Orlando Rivera & David Rivera (lead developer) will discussed lessons learned so far & some of the studio's plans for future projects. We plan on advancing our efforts in the education space with leadership from Maria Rivera (Associate Director at NYU).
