Anand Kumar
CEO, Metalab Technologies
Anand has been developing products for the metaverse for almost close to a decade. In his previous venture, he created a virtual reality arcade cricket game called v20 cricket using oculus quest. Initially appearing in a single shopping mall, it quickly gained popularity and spread to 16 more malls across India.
The recent developments in the virtual world led by facebook made his life easy to explain to his friends and family what he does for a living. They have seen him wearing virtual reality headsets for hours, making weird gestures testing augmented reality applications, talking to 3d AI chat bots. It now makes sense to them what he does.
He earned a master's degree in software engineering and then trained himself in the creative arts industry.
