Growing your AR business is a good thing, but it’s not always clear exactly where and when you should start pulling in help. And if left unmanaged, your business can quickly become overwhelming, unwieldy and even unprofitable without an operational strategy. In this episode, we’re joined by Max Vincenc, CEO and founder of Xnauts.io and Mohammad Faiz, founder of 4Lunches to help us navigate this important topic.

Mohammad Faiz: Faiz is an AR enthusiast and an advocate of breaking the fourth wall through Technology. He believes Augmented Reality will pave the way for more immersive realities and the way we interact with each other going forward.
