opportunities for revenue generation Metaverse

immersive and decentralized with a limitless

engage consumers, transforms sectors like
manufacturing and healthcare, and eases training
and learning without disturbing the real-world
infrastructure and systems. A McKenzie report

revenue up to 5 trillion by 2030, and therefore,
it is imperative to gauge how various segments
are leveraging it. Learning Development By

investing in infrastructure and commute,
metaverse comes across as an innovative,
cost-effective, and result-oriented option

healthcare with advanced Augmented Reality (AR)
devices and simulators. Johns Hopkins surgeons
use AR devices for spinal surgeries that show the
internal anatomy and help surgeons place implants
precisely. Telemedicine for several physical and
mental health conditions helps mitigate
geographical barriers and promotes a safe space
with enhanced privacy levels. Manufacturing Globa
l conglomerates like Amazon, Siemens, and BMW
have invested massively in digital twin
technology that helps create a virtual RD space
for safer and more efficient manufacturing
processes. BMWs virtual EV manufacturing factory
in NVIDIAs Omniverse has helped them save
millions by deploying simulation technology in 3D
models. Gaming Entertainment The Gaming and
Entertainment sector are the pioneers of
Metaverse, and cannot be ignored as their
million-dollar revenue generation capacity has a
global userbase. Games maintain a robust
monetization strategy by encouraging players to
make in-game purchases and subscriptions.

own land in the Metaverse, many celebrities
catered to their fans demands for virtual
concerts. Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande and Daler
Mehendi are some of the few artists who performed
at virtual concerts on Metaverse platforms like
Wave and Fortnite, and their admirers did not
resist buying high-priced tickets to attend these
virtual concerts. Military Aviation
Defence Military Aviation and the Defence segment
are not far behind from harnessing Metaverses
potential to mitigate and control hazards and
overcome pressing challenges. With the help of AR
devices, military planes empowered with Lockheed
Martin technology can digitally map wildfires
below with the help of the Cognitive Mission
Manager. This technology helps predict wildfire
behavior and enables decision-makers to design an
appropriate plan of action to suppress
those. Metaverse-related devices market The
devices key to partake in the Metaverse platforms
have a global market growing by leaps and bounds.
For example, the AR/VR market is predicted to
generate revenue worth US32.1bn in 2023 and grow
at a CAGR of 12.60 by 2028. One of the Metaverse
gloves prototypes, the Haptic gloves, is
predicted to sweep through a market of 2 billion
by 2027. Having said that, many globally
7
reputed companies have been investing in
Metaverse-related devices as there is a mass
market for the products.
Takeaway Metaverse is open to consistent
innovation in the fields of entertainment,
healthcare, manufacturing, military, and gaming
and transforming the market dynamics globally.
While the world is under this wave of immersive,
innovative, and altered reality- technology,
every business has a choice. They can get swept
by the wave, underperform, embrace mediocrity, or
harness the power of Metaverse and open the doors
to newer opportunities. If by 2030, all key
enterprises are anticipated to go the Metaverse
fashion, it is about time to see where this
technology fits the scheme of things for every
business, small, medium, or large. The
decentralized parallel universe is not a mirage
anymore, it is right around the corner, waiting

successor state to todays internet and this

audience base who want to perceive a more
seamless connectivity and experience. The
