Watch: Tech giants form metaverse standards body, but without Apple • FRANCE 24 English (youtube.com)
Tech giants such as Meta, Sony and Adobe, together with oversight groups like the World Wide Web Consortium, have created a forum to set standards for the nascent metaverse industry. The move aims to make digital worlds compatible with each other. However, Apple and Snapchat have not joined the outfit. Plus, after being hit by a dramatic fall in visitors from Russia and Ukraine, the Egyptian Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh is looking to attract tourists from elsewhere. We take a closer look.

    Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Initially, this is a good event, trying to get common standards to the Metaverse industry. Imagine the mess we have now with just connecting chargers to different phones, multiply this several thousand times if every Metaverse platform has different standards, devices, modes, and so on, making this space difficult to use globally. The fact that Apple is not there is not surprising too. But we are not here to criticise what is already a settled behaviour.
