The XR Awards are back for a third year in a row for its 2024 edition, showcasing a diverse range of end-users, individuals, and companies leading the enterprise XR space.
2024 is looking to be a huge year for XR – with massive technology giants like Apple jumping into the AR/VR/MR market – and the XR Awards are a great way to get ahead and learn about the firms leading in transforming business with immersive technology.
The XR Awards is a prestigious global event recognizing innovation and success in XR and Collaboration technology. This year, there are various categories for vendors to compete in.
The number of applications received for the event last year was record-breaking, and the winners included notable companies such as HTC-Vive, Pfizer Global Supply, Qualcomm, RealWear, and TeamViewer – with countless other excellent applications.
The XR Awards is a fully digital event, which means there are no usual costs associated with participation, such as table fees, travel, or accommodation expenses. Vendors are only required to pay a small application fee.
Moreover, the fully digital nature means audiences worldwide can enjoy the live ceremony event from home, when XR Today will host the ceremony live on Thursday, May 23 2024, at 4PM BST/11AM EST. Find out more on our XR Awards page.
Applications for this year’s XR Awards open Wednesday 14th, February and must be submitted by Thursday, March 28 2024, so be sure to get ready and hand in an application as soon as possible to win.
