This is a special episode of our MetaMind3.0 events! This is part two of two, and the theme of the event was "Technology that enables the Metaverse." Our moderator was MC and host Tuesday Le Roux, and our panellists were Raed Mikail (Co-Founder & CEO for AVR Hub), Walid Abdelal (Machine learning and blockchain expert, and Rail Systems Engineering & IS Chief Engineer at RTA), and George Chivi (Associate Business Director at Publicis Group).

In part two, our panelists continue the deep dive into where the Metaverse is right now, and where it should be. They also unpack more about the blockchain: What is it? What are its limits? How does AI play into blockchain security?

Particularly, our panelists look at one of the more important pillars in the Metaverse for anyone who’s looking to enter the space: User behaviour. One of the things that came out of this episode, actually, was that user behaviour is the #1 reason why we're decades away from wide adoption of the Metaverse
