Join me as i have an in depth conversation with Rashid Mansour, Co-Founder and CEO of Meta Gravity about the future of the Metaverse.
MetaGravity claims is it solving the issue of distributed compute infrastructure required to support metaverse-scale gaming. Games engines have a limit of less than 100 concurrent players in a single shard. Spatial partitioning platforms have a fixed mathematical limit of 1-15,000 concurrent users and are costly and difficult to use.

CTA’s Director of Thematic Programs Brian Comiskey and team is spending much of their time thinking about the implications of metaverse in the enterprise, AI, innovation, and how it will impact industry, business, future of work and startup ecosystems. I think he'd be a compelling guest on your new series.
CTA and Nasdaq developed many Nasdaq CTA Indexes, including, since 2017, the Nasdaq CTA Artificial Intelligence & Robotics Index (NQROBO) and Global Video Games Software Index (PLAYR2) - both which include metaverse/VR/AR. Brian is regularly quoted in global media and presents to financial institutions and at CES on the topic, including:
His team manages a portfolio of 15 thematic indexes with 20 funds tracking them across listings in more than a dozen countries and holding approximately $11B in assets under management – and they recently finished rebalancing the portfolio, so fresh insights are there about the companies and approaches making a difference in Metaverse.
