Dubai, UAE, 23 May 2023 – Shaffra, a metaverse-as-a-service platform that empowers businesses and governments to create their own metaverse experiences with ease, has announced its participation at Seamless Middle East 2023. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn about the potential of the metaverse and how it can be integrated into their operations, enabling them to remain competitive and tap into new streams of revenue.
During the two-day event, Shaffra will showcase the various applications of its MaaS solution across multiple industries, including government, retail, real estate, entertainment, and more. Visitors at Seamless 2023 will experience Shaffra’s platform firsthand through a demo, which will present the API-first metaverse engine of its platform that provides users full control over data while integrating with their websites, apps, and systems. They will also explore the platform’s versatility and witness how avatars can interact in diverse activities beyond traditional social interactions.
According to PwC, the metaverse has the potential to contribute around $15 billion to GCC economies by 2030, with Dubai alone expected to generate $4 billion and create 40,000 new jobs within the next five years. This growth is driven by factors such as increasing internet penetration, rising demand for virtual events and conferences, and the growing popularity of gaming and social media.
