Roblox), augmented reality applications, Blockchain-enabled payment solutions, and token-based digital assets (aka NFTs).The Asia Metaverse Society has been established with the mindset of promoting inclusivity, collaboration, dialogue and debate among all those who will have an expected role in the development of the metaverse and Web3-related technologies, including developers, creatives, product managers, marketers, commercial teams, investors, CEOs, startups founders, educators and researchers alike.
