The Future of Virtual Reality

Alex Howland is not a software developer, he’s not particularly interested in gaming, and his background in tech is, well, nonexistent. So how then did Alex find himself co-founding Virbela and working on the cutting edge of virtual reality?

On this episode of Future of Tech we’ll find out as Alex takes us through his journey from organizational psychologist into the tech world, and he’ll let us in on the secrets of how experiential learning is playing a role in what the future of virtual reality will look like. So what will it look like? Will we all be wearing VR headsets in the years to come? Alex has the answers and the explanations. He talks about the rise of gamified VR and how it’s being used in military settings to train soldiers, and he dives into how virtual worlds and experiences are now being used across enterprise companies and in the education system to bring a sense of togetherness to an increasingly work-from-home focused world.
