Virtual Reality (VR) has the potential to revolutionise education. In this keynote, we will share how GoStudent transforms how students acquire foreign speaking abilities and gain confidence with VR. But how do you make sure that businesses are using nascent technologies for the right reasons? How do you make sure to distinguish hype from sustainable innovation with real impact? In this keynote Alex will also share how he applied processes and learnings stemming from 5 years in Google’s AR/VR unit (Daydream, now known as Google Labs) to guide product development at GoStudent.

Using Virtual Reality can be highly effective when it comes to training. But how do you create such an immersive learning experience that is both engaging and leaves an impact?
In this talk, Warp VR CEO Thijs de Vries and Learning & Development specialist Nadine Steiger from Erste Bank share their unique vision on building interactive, immersive training scenarios with 360° video, storytelling and gamification. They will share what type of training topics Erste Bank is using VR for and how they have easily deployed and scaled this form of training to thousands of learners.
Join in to hear:
• Erste Bank's best practices on using VR for training
• How to combine gamification, storytelling and 360° video
• About Warp VR, the no-code platform that is used to create these VR training courses

In the rapidly evolving educational landscape, extended reality (XR) is being explored as a frontier for medical training. Dr. Ruby Woodward, drawing from her interdisciplinary research at Cambridge University and hands-on experience with GigXR, will delve into the potential of these technologies, guiding listeners through the intersection of XR and medical education.
She will introduce attendees to HoloScenarios—an innovative application that leverages XR to produce hyperrealistic holographic simulations emulating high-risk acute medical scenarios. Moreover, she will discuss the integration of conversational artificial intelligence (AI) with teaching methods to enhance communication training for healthcare practitioners.
The talk will emphasize the importance of aligning such technological innovations with established medical principles and learning theories. By highlighting insights from collaborative endeavors with experts spanning academia, clinical practice, and technology, the discussion will underscore the multidisciplinary approach essential for guaranteeing the efficacy and integrity of XR in medical education. This presentation will elucidate the symbiosis of XR, AI, medicine, and pedagogy.
Join Dr. Woodward as she outlines the hurdles, breakthroughs, and innovative solutions driving the future of medical education in the XR domain.
