The metaverse is having impact today
People and businesses are using metaverse technologies to create new opportunities that benefit society. From immersive education and training to new possibilities in healthcare and the workplace, we are excited about the positive benefits the metaverse is delivering.
Many companies are part of bringing the metaverse to life, leveraging virtual and augmented reality to improve industries and people’s lives. Dive into stories about how this is happening today.
To bring the possibilities of the metaverse to life, we need to create safe and secure experiences. As we build, these four priority areas are front and center:
Economic opportunity
Giving people choice, and maintaining a thriving digital economy.
Privacy
Building meaningful transparency and control into our products.
Safety + integrity
Keeping people safe on our platforms, and giving them tools to take action or get help if they see or experience something they aren’t comfortable with.
Equity + inclusion
Ensuring these technologies are designed inclusively and in a way that’s accessible.
