MISSION
WHY
Virtual, augmented & mixed reality (XR) technology is the next global computing platform. As early pioneers working in the XR industry, we have the responsibility and opportunity to consciously build an inclusive and diverse immersive future.
WHO
XRI is a democratic, volunteer-based initiative led by a diverse and global group of XR professionals, D&I experts, lawyers, HR professionals, artists, researchers, and other passionate individuals.
WHAT & HOW
XRI gathers, organizes and shares key information and resources to support diversity, equity and inclusion in the XR industry. We work to measure the problems that exist, then develop strategies and initiatives to eliminate them.
