HUVR | Virtual Access to Mobile Locations and Virtual Events Around the World, Without Physically Being There, Are We There Yet?

In an era of constant digital connection, can virtual access provide opportunities where a physical presence isn’t attainable?

The march towards an increasingly digital world creates the capacity to exist in multiple locations simultaneously through virtual platform technology. From learning services to trade shows, industries are finding innovative ways to incorporate these new capabilities. One trend making waves in this space is the emergence of virtual access to global mobile locations and events, bringing an exciting shift in how people engage with remote experiences.
