After Google’s high-profile flop with Google Glass, a clunky version of smart glasses, some people thought virtual reality (VR) was struggling. But that couldn’t be further from the truth. Google just didn’t get the formula right.
The global VR market is actually quite strong and predicted to grow at an annual compounding rate of 81% by 2024. That translates to big business for the companies that use it. VR is influencing entertainment, social media, mobile devices, and search engines. It’s also transforming how people buy and experience the products they love.
At Egypt VR, we’re leading the charge toward 100% consumer-friendly VR and immersive video production. We’re the company that pioneered immersive media in the middle east and north Africa region before VR became mainstream
