The Economist’s Metaverse Summit 2022 will help senior business leaders define and build
mixed reality experiences that will add economic and social value.

\
The event will take place on October 26-27th, comprising an in-person experience on
October 26th in San Jose and one day in the metaverse on October 27th.

\
As the boundaries between virtual and real life become increasingly blurred, this event will
offer a credible and nuanced perspective of the true scope of Web3.
