Happy New Year Everyone!

I totally agree with this statement. Just wanna share this idea to you!

"As for what the future holds, the vision currently portrayed by large platform providers of a metaverse filled with cartoonish avatars is misleading. Yes, virtual worlds for socializing will become increasingly popular, but they will not be the means through which immersive media transforms society. The true metaverse — the one that becomes the central platform of our lives — will be an augmented world. And by 2030 it will be everywhere."

While it is a very interesting trend to keep an eye on, I believe the search fund community is more focused on traditional businesses... I see two big parties regarding the investment: high growth + high return opportunities vs reasonable priced cash cows. It would be an interesting discussion in itself.

Is there much VC/PE activity in this space?
