About

metAIverse enhance the lean startup way into the next level by introducing the metaverse dimension, a virtual space where to launch iterative MVPs to be validated and tested by key users and key stakeholders. the idea is to support startups by successfully using Ai to introduce already validated viable ideas to the marketplace faster and better. Outside of the metaverse, the AI will be used to evaluate incoming feedback and information gathered on social media through sensitive analysis to assess business model and new ideas (after or in parallel with the metaverse MVPs testing). Building on the multi-annual experience on lean startup and lean innovation, and leveraging on the metaverse technology available on the Marco Garetti Lab managed by the Manufacturing Group from the Industrial Engineering Department at Politecnico di Milano, the project will be very active and industrially oriented to work with as many startup as possible providing them concrete ways to validate iteratively their business ideas. The method will be then heritage of the startup community that can adopt exploitable results even after the project is over. To complete the consortium I am looking for startups/hubs/accelerators as well as research institutions with practical expertise on the field.
