Leading the Movement Towards the Metaverse
Virbela is at the forefront of a movement where globally recognized companies are transitioning into the Metaverse. This shift is one that is expected to encompass every organization in the future. With Virbela leading the way, businesses are embracing a new era of virtual collaboration and communication.
Creating a Productive Virtual Workspace
Virbela offers a virtual environment that simulates a traditional office setting, but with added benefits. By eliminating the constraints of commuting, strict dress codes, and physical office spaces, Virbela provides a platform for fostering camaraderie, collaboration, and a focus on the quality of ideas and achievements. These cultural advantages directly contribute to enhancing productivity, fostering innovation, and driving organizational growth.
Innovative Technology for Human Connection
At the core of Virbela's platform is an understanding of human psychology and behavior. This knowledge is translated into the virtual worlds created by Virbela for its users. Founded by Alex Howland, whose research in behavioral psychology paved the way for the development of Virbela, the platform offers immersive virtual reality experiences focused on education and team development. The platform's innovative approach to connecting remote colleagues and students has garnered recognition and support, including a grant from a business enterprise body to kickstart the journey.
Transformative Acquisition by eXp Realty
Having raised significant funding and developed Virbela into a leading solution for remote teams, the platform caught the attention of forward-thinking real estate brokerage eXp Realty. In 2018, eXp Realty acquired Virbela's core products and services, recognizing the potential for enhancing their real estate brokerage operations. With over 85,000 real estate brokers and agents benefiting from Virbela's 3D virtual office environment, the acquisition marked a transformative moment in both companies' trajectories.
