Since Facebook changed its name to Meta at the end of October 2021, it has been on everyone's lips: the metaverse or just metaverse. But what do we really know about it other than that in the future we will perhaps be on the Internet even more than we already are, and 24/7 - at least that's the idea - with VR goggles on our heads. But is it that simple? Is the Metaverse the next "big thing" or is this just an ingenious marketing strategy by the largest social media company in the world? Who came up with all of this? What technology is behind it? And how can you benefit from it in the future? You'll learn all this and much more in this course.

When we talk about "the metaverse" today, it's comparable to a discussion in the 90s about "the internet". There are so many ideas, fears and hopes about what this new step will bring. But don't worry: knowledge is power and this is exactly the knowledge I will share in this course.
