Publisher's summary
Jump into the metaverse to connect with consumers and explore endless opportunities
Like the Internet before it, the metaverse is a virtual space bringing people, companies, and products together in both digital and real environments to create new economic opportunities. The groundwork is already laid. People and organizations jumping in are gaining invaluable experience, meeting customers, developing revenue streams, and even shaping metaverse culture.
In Navigating the Metaverse: A Guide to Limitless Business Possibilities in a Web 3.0 World, a team of Silicon Valley thought leaders delivers a groundbreaking discussion of how to find the right opportunities in this fast-moving universe. You'll explore everything from the metaverse basics, to strategy, to launching your first metaverse project. In the book, you'll find: data and market analysis to erase any doubt that the metaverse is the next big thing; foundational knowledge about the metaverse, metaverse economy, Web3 technology, and more; the essential connection between metaverse environments, businesses, community, and digital products that make the metaverse economy so powerful; a deep dive on non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and how to make the most of these assets; and frameworks to help find, nurture, measure, and capitalize on innovation in the metaverse.

What do Google, Snapchat, Tinder, Amazon, and Uber have in common, besides soaring market share? They're platforms - a new business model that has quietly become the only game in town. A platform, by definition, creates value by facilitating an exchange between two or more interdependent groups. So, rather than making things, they simply connect people. The advent of mobile computing and its ubiquitous connectivity have forever altered how we interact with each other. Yet, few people truly grasp the radical structural shifts of the last 10 years.

Story
Facebook's founding is legend: In a Harvard dorm, wunderkind Mark Zuckerberg invented a new way to connect with friends...and the rest is history. But for the people who actually molded this great idea into a game-changing $300 billion company, the experience was far more tumultuous and uncertain than we might expect. Mike Hoefflinger was one of those Facebook insiders.

Got my aha moment
The narrative was well structured. It spoke on complex technologies yet was able to keep the discussion interesting. I got my aha moment while listening to the audio - the business idea which I would like to pursue - so, for me at least, the goal of the book, as stated by the author, was achieved!
