It is currently being tested: internal meetings are held there and new employees are being adapted
VTB Bank announced that it is testing its own metaverse — three-dimensional interactive space for virtual interaction between users. The demonstration took place as part of the Data Fusion 2024 conference: one of the sessions of the event was held right in the VTB metaverse. Its creators believe that the project, in the future, can be used to provide services in a new format, for example, opening banking cyber offices.
Metaverse — VTB’s own development, created by the bank’s innovation department. To date, the platform has several virtual locations, which the bank is testing for holding internal meetings of technology teams, onboarding new employees, etc. Users take part in «meta-events» as 3D avatars or via video call.
For now, the bank uses the metaverse for its own needs, while it is open for integration with other digital systems, products and services, including digital avatars and virtual voice assistants. VTB added that in the future, users will have the opportunity to see literally from the inside any technological solution, product or service of the bank, to examine it in all details.
