Immersive Networking Events
Innovation Business Academy has made connecting with peers easy and effective through our dynamic Immersive Networking Events so our members can foster meaningful connections and find clients and customers within a supportive community of like-minded entrepreneurs.
​
Most online networking events take place on a Zoom-like platform, which can be chaotic and ineffective. We decided to do something different and host our Networking Events in our 3D Virtual HQ. (No VR headset required)
