AWE USA 2021
Just under an hour to go until the start of AWE USA 2021, the most important event in the XR sector of this 2021. AWE USA 2021 will take place in person, at the Convention Center in Santa Clara, California, where the largest companies in the XR sector are gathering from all over the world.
Ori Inbar, Ori Inbar, organizer of the event, as early as May 2020 he announced that AWE USA 2021 would be held in November of this year. A truly futuristic forecast, at a time when no one would have thought they could organize an event in the presence of such relevance, assuming that Covid-19 would have given us some respite.
And which was confirmed by the opening of the borders of the United States, precisely on November 8, the Monday preceding the date set for the start of the event.
Three days of meetings that will see the major companies in the sector, such as Niantic, Snap, Unity, Magic Leap, HP, Lenovo Meta, Qualcoom Forbes, Rblox, Microsoft, 8th Wall, Virbela, VRrOOm, Disney, Amazon, Warner Music Group, Marvel, Tesla, Epic Games just to name a few, showcase their innovations in the XR industry.
An event that can also be followed online, through the AWE.LIVE App
