As the XR industry continues to develop ways to accelerate consumer and enterprise adoption, it’s all about gaining knowledge and network. And the timing is right to examine product and business models, given XR’s early phases.

With that backdrop, XRDC is coming to San Francisco in October to examine XR’s commercial impact. To do that, it has assembled A-list speakers spread across both supply and demand sides of the XR ecosystem. And the program will span eight thematic tracks, shown below.
