Personal Details

Bio

Having spent many years campaigning within PwC about the business value of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technology, Jeremy's efforts led him to founding and running the Metaverse Technologies team in the UK.

Based on his experiences of implementing this technology for organizations across a number of industries, he wrote Reality Check: How Immersive Technologies Can Transform Your Business, a book that anyone can pick up to gain an understanding of how virtual reality and augmented reality are being used in businesses everywhere.

Jeremy and his work with Metaverse Technologies have since been featured in The Financial Times, The Economist, the BBC, and other media outlets. He speaks passionately all over the world about this technology as well as his experience of straddling two worlds - startup and corporation - to deliver the most valuable outcomes to large businesses.

He has worked with organizations like the World Economic Forum and currently sits on the advisory board of Immerse UK, a government-backed body to support businesses interested in immersive technologies.

Virtual Reality – An Inevitable Future

Humanity has always craved immersive experiences. In the modern age, this manifests itself in, among other things, our increasing appetite for bigger, higher resolution screens, our attraction to immersive theatre, and the many purchases we make under the banner of 'experience days'.

In this talk, we will explore how virtual reality has evolved as an immersive storytelling device from its primitive predecessors. We will look at how VR is currently being used and how it could be used in the future, alongside an analysis of predictions and trends in the industry.

Through these different lenses, we will start to understand why virtual reality's future is not only secure but expected to form a significant part of both our personal and professional lives.

Time for a Reality Check

Discover THE next big competitive advantage in business: learn how augmented and virtual reality can put your business ahead. Augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) are part of a new wave of immersive technologies that offer huge opportunities for businesses, across industries and regardless of their size.

Jeremy will show you the value of VR and AR technology through its numerous applications in different industries while breaking down some pervasive and persistent myths.

VR/AR in Industry

Jeremy will reveal research into how VR/AR is being adopted by enterprise and public services. Which sectors are adopting these technologies, why are they using them, and what other challenges and opportunities lie ahead for even greater VR/AR adoption?

  • Jeremy presented at our I-CAHN (Immersive Culture and Heritage Network) event in April. He is an exceptional speaker with a wealth of knowledge about the XR industry. He is very professional and met with us beforehand to discuss our priorities and then tailored his presentation accordingly. We had many positive comments about his overview, but also the range of useful data that he produced throughout his presentation. Thanks Jeremy your presentation was very interesting and we really enjoyed it. We will be booking you again!

  • Jeremy delivered a great session for our (Virtalis) global customer and partner base on our industry meetup. At these events, we focus on addressing key trends and challenges in a specific industry. In addition, we explore and discuss case studies on how XR can address these challenges and help organizations become winners in their markets. Jeremy provided a powerful and engaging keynote taking the audience along in what's happening in the world of XR and why organizations have to move fast to keep up with the competition. Enterprises need to enable and nurture high-performing teams and move to an advanced level of collaboration. At this event, we demonstrated how Virtalis XR is enabling fast decision-making by bringing teams and supply chain partners together in a virtual world.

  • proSapient was delighted to host Jeremy as part of our company's guest speaker series, which hosts exceptional professionals to learn about their career and industry. Jeremy's presentation on AR and VR was nothing short of fantastic - it was informative, engaging, and showcased several real-life examples of AR and VR. Jeremy also did a fantastic job of describing and explaining AR and VR in such a way that all attendees felt included and engaged, regardless of their understanding of the industry. It was a pleasure to have Jeremy as part of this series, and would absolutely recommend him in the future.
