Adoption scenarios for the metaverse will range from radical to practical. Based on your customer needs and business objectives, you will need to consider the best opportunities for your business and how to leverage them to your advantage. As the boundaries between physical and digital experiences continue to blend, so will the boundaries between reality and virtual shopping.

Embracing emerging technologies to find new markets and meet ongoing changes in consumer expectations will continue to reshape your business in fascinating and futuristic ways. An exciting opportunity on the horizon is the metaverse (derived from "meta," which means beyond, and "universe" to convey a parallel world). You may be among the many companies exploring what this $8T opportunity could mean for your revenue potential in the future. Simply put, the metaverse is the fusing of existing and emerging technologies to create augmented life experiences. It's like being inside an embodied internet that's not limited by devices.

Using Web3 concepts like blockchain, cryptocurrency and non-fungible tokens (NFTs), the metaverse exploits technologies such as augmented reality/virtual reality (AR/VR), artificial intelligence (A1), 5G and the cloud. While it's been imagined in sci-fi books and movies for decades, the gaming industry has been the primary growth driver of this technology to date. It's not yet known how the metaverse will impact the retail industry, other than it will be sure to bring another disruption.
