As every year, we had the pleasure of attending SXSW in Austin, a hub of innovation where the brightest minds in tech, AI, and immersive experiences come together. This year was no exception—we connected with incredible companies pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in AI and immersive media.

One of the highlights was experiencing firsthand the latest advancements in immersive technologies. From groundbreaking AI-driven experiences to next-generation XR applications, SXSW provided a glimpse into the future of this space. I think this year had the best immersive exhibition I have seen so far, including very cool experiences such as Oto's Planet, Symphoni or Currents.

We were also thrilled to showcase our own work, including our contributions to the Volograms for Academia project within the Imagine-B5G initiative. Presenting at Ireland House, we demonstrated how streamable volumetric video can transform education and make immersive learning more accessible than ever.

Additionally, we had the honor of participating in a panel on spatial storytelling with our friends at Imvizar and Eirmersive, where we shared insights on the evolving landscape of digital narratives and how volumetric video is shaping the way stories are told.

SXSW never fails to inspire, and we’re excited to build on the connections and ideas sparked at this year’s event. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to push the boundaries of immersive technology!
