The tool can be tailored to address specific organizational needs leveraging different sets of data. It can be securely installed and operationalized across a wide variety of working environments, whether on-premises or in the cloud, ensuring flexibility and control over data security.

Unlimited Reality ™ 

The Deloitte booth will feature a pop-up Mixed Reality experience of the new Cupra Born, offering visitors the opportunity to immerse themselves in the feeling and state-of-mind for this new car. The Mixed Reality applications provide an engaging, interactive, and immersive 3D environment, enhancing product presentations and user experiences.

Additional assets in the Unlimited Reality™ category include Digital Twin experiences focused on real estate, manufacturing and automotive industries. An XR Gallery section will zoom into augmented reality and a virtual in-store solution. Visitors at the Deloitte booth will also be able to interact with Virtual Concierge, a tool powered by AI.

Sustainability

The ‘GreenLight Solution’ by Deloitte will also be showcased, an end-to-end sustainability solution providing a path to net-zero emissions through a user-friendly interface. Additionally, the ‘GreenSpace Tech’ by Deloitte connects climate technology solutions and innovators to industry stakeholders. Leveraging Deloitte's commercialization and climate knowledge, global network, and sensing tools, it facilitates the adoption and scaling of technologies that promote decarbonization and sustainability.
