Through our work with learning<br>organisations around the world, including Unity, we can see the economic potential of immersive technologies, but this is not widely reflected in the strategies, priorities, and investment plans of governments, businesses, or educators. We believe the challenges facing the immersive sector are much more nuanced than those facing the digital industry as a whole. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Watch the full recording of this session from the summit here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=44G9JCzWj5Q\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=44G9JCzWj5Q<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out our<a href=\"https:\/\/knowledgepoint.com\/future-skills\/\"> Immersive Skills Storm report<\/a> with research we\u2019ve commissioned from Infrabee, which looks at the gathering storm facing the immersive economies across Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In October, Unity hosted its Unity for Humanity summit 2021.
