Programmes Digital, Industry & Space   AI, data & cloud   Deployment: Best use of technologies  

The OpenVerse project aims at integrating knowledge, experts and actors around the creation of inclusive, open and ethically responsible European Virtual Worlds. This is done in alignment with the European Commission’s strategy on Web 4.0 and Virtual Worlds.

As part its work, OpenVerse is conducting a landscaping exercise of initiatives that promote the uptake of Virtual Worlds technologies in each EU Member State. If you are involved in or aware of any Virtual World / Metaverse / Extended Reality initiative in Flanders, please contact Mattia Trino of the Big Data Value Association.

As a follow up, OpenVerse is planning a workshop on 22 January 2025, with the aim of reuniting all the initiatives and discuss together collaboration opportunities and the next steps that can be taken by this growing community!

The consortium partners took up this challenge by valorising industrial side streams and setting up a circular approach to the textile industry.
