AWE USA has revealed the initial agenda for its 2022 event, which is being held June 1-3 in Santa Clara, CA.

“2022 has seen extended reality (XR) become essential,” show organizers said in an email. “Any company looking to advance their business can learn from leading brands speaking at AWE USA about how they are adopting XR and crafting their strategies for the metaverse.”

Brands speaking at AWE USA 2022 include Autodesk, Epic Games, HTC, Sony, and more. It was previously announced that Unity CEO John Riccitiello will give the keynote at the event.

The educational program will include 12 distinct tracks: Main Stage; Retail, eCommerce, and Advertising; Healthcare and Wellness; Enterprise; Start-Ups and Investors; Gaming, Entertainment, and Media; Collaboration, Training, and Education; Creator; AI & Virtual Beings; XR Safety and Security; Developer; and XR Enablement.

In addition to education, the show will feature The AWE Playground, a 20,000 sq. ft. augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) experience center featuring highly immersive and interactive demos.

Also, as a gesture of solidarity with the people of Ukraine, this year AWE is offering Ukrainian founders a free space on the expo floor in order to help Ukrainian lead companies in any small way that we can. Ukrainian founders can click here to get in touch with the AWE team.
