On 11 April, CDG-Booster organised a local Meetup in Lahti focusing on how extended and virtual reality technologies can be used in experience-driven sectors.

The first batch of companies has gathered in Tallinn to meet each other, to practice pitching and kick start their 12-month Accelerator journey.

Knowing what you know and what you don’t is the key to building successful networks. This was the premise of the 2nd CDG Booster Local Meetup in Lahti (FIN).

After a careful evaluation process, 25 companies have been selected to participate in the 1st round of the 12-month journey of mentorship, innovation, and business growth.

The application period for the 1st round of growth-boosting ACCELERATOR programme, targeted for game companies and all those working in VR/AR/XR or applying these technologies creatively in other industries is open until the end of this week!

The time to hesitate is through. Advancements in AI and cloud computing are making it easier for companies to adopt XR and gamification, presenting a prime opportunity for startups to innovate.

This week we’re heading to sTARTUp Day, one of the most prominent business festivals in the Baltic region, to connect with innovators and entrepreneurs working with immersive experiences. CDG-Booster will be present at the XR Mixer side event where we will introduce our forthcoming Accelerator Programme.

The 1st CDG-Booster Meetup set the stage for a compelling discussion on leveraging data for business growth. Entrepreneurs and startups should note that success often lies at the intersection of technology, creativity, and purpose.

CDG Meetups bring together local innovators and experts to share insights, foster collaboration, and inspire growth, starting with a January 17 event in Lahti featuring Nuanic's groundbreaking stress management technology.

This year, the Match XR brought together XR stakeholders, thought leaders, and innovators from around the globe to showcase ideas, demonstrate solutions, and forge meaningful connections.
