Immersing PM’s in Immersive Technology

Thursday, September 22nd

What is the difference between the metaverse, AR, VR, mixed reality, web 2.0, and web 3.0? How will our products change? How will our jobs change? What does it take to create immersive experiences? How do teams go from 2D to 3D designs?

As project managers working in the digital space, we need to stay up to speed within a fast-moving landscape of emerging tech and digital trends. And, honestly, it’s a lot to keep up with.

That’s why we’ve invited Abbas Jeraj (Product Designer at Accenture Song) to come give us an injection of knowledge to help us digital PMs navigate immersive technology so that we can lead our project teams effectively alongside the ever-evolving future of digital.

What you’ll be set for
