This year, Laval Virtual is celebrating its 25th edition. The biggest players of virtual reality, augmented reality and the metaverse will be at Laval (Mayenne, France) on April 12-16, 2023.
Close to 200 exhibitors spread over 5400m2 will present their virtual and augmented reality solutions to the 10,000 expected visitors. Whether they are experts, advanced or simply eager to learn more about immersive technologies, they will be able to inform, interact and discover all the solutions presented by the exhibitors on April 12-14 during Business Days and until the 16th for Consumer Days.
“Work remotely, the metaverse… work environments have evolved, social links have changed, more and more innovative project leaders are integrating new digital tools, big companies learned how to adapt and create cutting-edge solutions. Nevertheless, every change leads to questions and sometimes even fears. Where does this evolution take us? Will we have our own avatar one day? Will our digital twin have its own identity? How to take advantage of those technologies without missing business opportunities? What are the perspectives of evolution in our daily life? Many questions that we will answer through a complete conference programme, meetings with professionals here to present their solution in a dedicated event, and experiences that you must test to better understand these changes.” — Alexandre Bouchet, Director of Laval Virtual

Laval Virtual highlights emerging talents of immersive technologies through a series of 4 unmissable competitions: ReVolution #Research for academic research projects; ReVolution #StartUps for young companies under 3 years of age; ReVolution #Experiences for immersive content production studios; ReVolution #Students for student projects. The ReVolution competitions is an opportunity for VR/AR innovative projects to be exhibited during the event. This year, we received more than 200 hundred applications.
Each year, the conference programme leaves the floor to international experts. In 2023, Laval Virtual BtoB conferences will answer the user’s major questions on virtual reality and the metaverse through 6 thematic half-days. The conferences (in English) will mention the uses and potential of virtual reality, augmented reality and metaverses in many business fields.
