IFA+ Summit 2017 took place in Berlin in early September bringing together a large part of the Berlin Tech Community. The Community empowers entrepreneurs and the brightest minds from all over the globe to be innovative and create their world of the future. The network of the Berlin Tech Community includes co-working offices, accelerators, freelancers, startups, investors and influencers from all industries.

Clemens Conrad, CEO, Director Experience & User Strategy took part in the panel discussion, VR – Real life vs. Fantasy, on day two of the summit. Attendees of the panel discussion learned how VR and AR is being leveraged across all industries impacting the way we learn, train, and conduct business today and in the future.

Clemens discussed several use cases, but focused on a program specific to the utility industry. The program, a utility industry first, aims to revolutionize high-consequence training by leveraging the latest VR and simulation technologies.
