Metaverse-related fields such as #blockchain#NFTs#web3#XR or #virtualworlds#virtualfashion are defining the landscape of next generation job opportunities from #blockchainand #gamingdevelopers to #animators#designers#marketers, and even #accountants#recruiters, and #lawyers

Renowned metaverse expert Cathy Hackl says “it’s an exciting time to consider how your career will change and evolve.“ 

Forecasting on the career opportunities and the #futureofwork, Cathy states “It will impact where and how people socialize, work, play, and transact. Some virtual worlds will be built on the blockchain are self-contained virtual cities and economies that simulate real-world interactions, others will parallel our physical world with some level of augmentation.”

“Small businesses in the real world could become big businesses in the metaverse, where business owners are not burdened by the perils of the retail brick and mortar. Amazon stores and Etsy shops can become metaverse goldmines, where customers can interact with products in 3D and transact seamlessly due to the expediency of blockchain technology.”

Cathy is a professionally trained futurist and strategist, who has worked with Amazon Web Services (AWS), Magic Leap, and HTC VIVE, and helps brands understand how this new paradigm will affect their businesses.

Certainly is food for thought when considering education choices, upskilling and career ambitions.  jobs@emeraldzebra.cy
