entertainment. Next-gen consoles and platforms are tilted evermore toward AR and VR functionality, leading us toward a more involved, interactive, and experiential future in entertainment.

Technology x Social Consumerism:
Safeguarding Our Future
Differentiated by social conscience to bring about “a scientific innovation or meaningful discovery,” the influence and integration of deep tech to drive other end-user services has become increasingly prevalent as a means for businesses to stay ahead of the curve.
No longer a novelty but fast becoming part and parcel of day-to-day living, how are deep tech startups—the vanguard of groundbreaking
innovation— becoming the driving force in determining what we see in the consumer and enterprise tech space.
