The investment bank Citigroup predicts that the metaverse — immersive digital worlds people can engage in as avatars — could be worth up to $13 trillion with five billion users by 2030. In other words, the future is coming up fast, and tech companies like Meta Platforms (formerly FaceBook), Microsoft, Apple, Amazon and Alphabet will need talent from various fields to make the metaverse possible.
