Daxue x AYO : China’s metaverse, the next frontier in retail

WHAT’S IN THE REPORT

In 2021, the Chinese government set Metaverse technology development as an objective for the country’s economic growth. With government incentives and a strong interest from Chinese consumers, Chinese tech giants have aggressively invested in Metaverse technology and applications ever since. VR enhanced gaming is of course one of those applications, but those technologies apply far beyond the world of video games. From virtual try-ons in retail stores to marketing campaigns based on metahuman influencers, Chinese firms are already using tomorrow’s Metaverse technologies to create ever increasingly engaging consumer experiences.

In this report made in collaboration with AYO Consulting, you will find an analysis of China’s metaverse and the various applications of its technology in retail.
