Activities

The Chair plans to organize or participate in three categories of ativities:

  • Bimonthly Webinars to discuss papers prepared by prominent scholars in Europe about the regulatory and ethical aspects of the metaverse identified in six Action Lines. 

  • An Annual Conference to be held in Alicante in the fourth quarter of the year.
  • Activities in collaboration with third parties (Side Activities). If you are interested in working with us, you can contact us and propose an activity with a detailed budget.

During its first meeting held in Alicante in February 2023, the Scientific Committee decided to focus the activities for the year 2023 on six Action Lines. Activities will be announced on our website. We invite you to subscribe to our distribution list in the footer of this page if you wish to receive the announcements by email.
