There were interesting keynote speeches by five professionals of the field;\u00a0Gunita Ku\u013cikovska (Architect, VR entrepreneur, Opinion Leader CEO, Vividly),\u00a0\u00a0Jarmo Suomisto (Project Manager, City of Helsinki, Architect, M.Sc.

(CEO, Plehat, Landscape Architect).\u00a0These speeches led to good discussions.<\/p>\n

The energy levels of the guests were taken care by special coffees made by the event’s barista. A fresh salad lunch was served after the keynotes at restaurant Luova. After that the visitors got to go on campus tours to see for example the workshops of Metropolia’s design students, and to hear about the studies. The tours ended to Helsinki XR Center open house, where it was possible to test different extended reality demos.<\/p>\n
