The Metaverse Institute

The Metaverse Institute is made up of a group of pioneers of metaverse-related technologies including AI, digital twins and smart cities. They advise the UN, governments, investors and institutions on the use of cutting-edge technologies to improve the real world. They recently published the world’s first people-centred metaverse strategy for the city government of Tampere in Finland, titled “Tampere Metaverse Vision 2040”. This envisions a range of innovative technologies being used to improve citizens’ lives, co-ordinated with effective governance and controls, within an overall strategy aimed at building a smart city fit for the coming decades. The report has been listed by the UN’s International Telecommunications Union in its Digital Transformation Resource Hub.
