VR in the B2B market
I don't think virtual reality (VR) really needs an introduction. Let's be honest, we're all talking about it and it's been 'the next big thing' for the past couple of years. Everyone and their mum know what it is, and have probably used it. Just know that by 2025, VR industries are set to make anything in between $80 to $182 billion. So, it's still a pretty big deal.
