Sebastien Borget, co-founder of The Sandbox metaverse, even called the future of the metaverse evolving.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking to Cointelegraph\u2019s Gareth Jenkinson at the Web Summit tech conference in Portugal on Nov. 3, Borget said that what we see today in The Sandbox is \u201cthe natural evolution of things\u201d after almost a decade of work. The evolution of the metaverse, particularly the way brands engage with users, has accelerated at rapid speed. <\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s this fast-paced development that has investors\u00a0pouring billions of dollars into metaverse projects across the space. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re now seeing in The Sandbox with more than 200 studios around the world that are building on a daily basis,\u201d Borget said in reference to the\u00a0new tools being released\u00a0for creators<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">A photo dump from <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WebSummit?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@WebSummit<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>Toto Wolff, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/KristinaLCorner?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@KristinaLCorner<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/IOHK_Charles?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@IOHK_Charles<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/borgetsebastien?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@borgetsebastien<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/gazza_jenks?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@gazza_jenks<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JoseValBal?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@JoseValBal<\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/nfZ9qqSNAw\">pic.twitter.com\/nfZ9qqSNAw<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Cointelegraph (@Cointelegraph) <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Cointelegraph\/status\/1588152055771832322?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 3, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>Many of these studios include iconic,\u00a0mainstream brands that have\u00a0found value in engaging with users on a digital plane.\u00a0Household names such as Gucci, <em>The Walking Dead<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a>, Katy Perry, Snoop Dogg and more have joined in metaverse investments or participation. <\/p>\n<p>Borget said that often, a big frustration of consumers is that they can\u2019t create alongside the big names they love. This is something that metaverse projects allow as they progress.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIt is not just about the influence and the reach of the celebrity or the brand. It\u2019s all about the content \u2014 the characters, stories and locations that people are familiar with and want to interact with.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Aside from the value of top-tier brands and big-name celebrities popping up in digital words, Borget said something to highlight is the actual users:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cPlayers themselves bring life by being present, by engaging in the land. That is also something that should be seen as valuable because they contribute to the growth of the network.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Any evolution of a digital platform cannot be made without active users engaging with the new tools and experiences.

Rather, as the metaverse advances and users interact in digital spaces, the engagement is created together, user and brand side by side. <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cTo me, that\u2019s real engagement. That\u2019s something that many brands are looking at because they not only reach Gen Z, but they help define the future of themselves in 3D worlds.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Despite recent rumors surrounding low metaverse engagement, investors and even governments are bullish on building out the digital universe. Recently, a city in Japan decided to turn to metaverse schooling to help with issues of student absence in the area.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In Norway, a local government agency dealing with taxes decided to open its first metaverse branch to cater to the tech-savviness of younger digital native generations. <\/p>\n<p><template data-name=\"subscription_form\" data-type=\"nifty_newsletter\"><\/template><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
