The space is designed with elements that make the user feel like they are in UDEP. “We believe this will be a new meeting place for parents, school children and anyone who wants to learn more about what we offer in education, in a more interactive way than anywhere else in the world,” said digital coordinator Sandra Reiss.

Luis Augusto, CEO of Manifesto Estudio, the provider of the project, emphasized the importance of the project as a milestone in exploring the new internet frontier, the spatial internet. “According to the entrepreneurs, this is the first attempt to combine tradition and technology to move into the future. This commitment to innovation is an opportunity to transform the way universities create and deliver experiences for their students and the academic community,” he concluded.

The MetaWares Office is the beginning of the path to innovation and research into new technologies in higher education.
