Nextech has undergone transformative growth in 2021, ultimately rebranding as a Metaverse company to better align with its vision and technology stack. With a full suite of integrated products, Nextech is positioned to capitalize on the Metaverse economy as one of the only end-to-end Metaverse solutions. The Company’s notable ARitize Metaverse Studio is the platform that allows customers to not only create a mini-metaverse environment through spatial mapping, but also populate that mini-metaverse with AR content including human holograms, 3D AR products, AR wayfinding, AR advertisements, and more.

Announced in a recent press release, Nextech’s ARitize Metaverse Studio is currently available as a managed service but is expected to be launched as a SaaS solution in early Q1 2022, bringing all of Nextech’s solutions together into one, easy to use, web-based studio. Nextech’s customers can access all their 3D assets, compose AR experiences, and publish them into the Metaverse in any format. In ARitize Metaverse Studio, customers can manage 3D/AR content and point cloud maps, which are used for localization. It also gives users the ability to update these point cloud maps and 3D/AR content in their application in real-time. ARitize Metaverse Studio will assist in managing and creating mini-metaverse environments such as shopping malls, airports, museums, university campuses, and more.

Nextech AR CEO Evan Gappelberg commented, “The Metaverse is a trillion dollar opportunity that big tech has recognized. Countless companies have all joined the Metaverse revolution and are looking for innovative companies like Nextech and others to provide 3D and AR solutions. I’m looking forward to presenting at the VRARA event and showcasing our unified Metaverse platform that integrates Nextech’s entire suite of AR solutions. We are a small cap company that has the tech stack of a large cap - and I believe we are one of the only, if not the only true end-to-end Metaverse solutions, giving us a first mover advantage.”

Nextech is currently a member of the VRARA, along with notable companies such as Microsoft, Unity, Meta, Intel, Google and many more.
