David Whelan. CEO, ENGAGE XR said: "Today's announcement is just a quick
snapshot of what's happening at ENGAGE XR. We will have more news and updates
in the coming months with the launch of ENGAGE Link expected towards the
latter half of this year. With ENGAGE Link, we are building a completely
distributive economic environment for forward-thinking enterprises and
individuals to build the future of work, commerce and communications.
"ENGAGE Link is the first time that our clients will have publicly
accessible, always on, persistent locations to advertise their business and
services directly to the general public and to potential clients. Clients can
build out their own unique MetaVerse for private company use or make it
available to the wider world on ENGAGE Link or via their own website using our
deep links system.
"Just as the emergence of the internet changed the world in the late 90s, the
professional MetaVerse will change business practices globally with how we
communicate with our employees, our customers and each other."
