Dear all,

let me share a few words of why I decided to support this project.

My experience from many years within the telecom sector taught me something very important: Fundamentally new technology is the opposite of a zero sum game. It is not about gaining relative grounds on each other.

It is all about collaboration and growing the industry as a whole, and if done well, the industry will grow by a factor thousand or even a million times. I also learned that analysts usually underestimate the magnitude of new technology impact, since we simply cannot imagine how fundamentally the world will change. Anyone who has experienced the impact of mobile telephony, the smartphone, Internet or now the emerging crypto tech knows that is true. It will be true for VR as well. My estimate for the VR sector growth is well beyond the typical analyst +1000% estimate to 2020.

I instantly fell in love with the demos created by the VIBEHub team. I feel that both the the music concert holoport and the high quality social museum is exactly what the VR industry needs to show the world right now.

The LiveTourLAB VR framework on WebVR is very much a here-and-now entry ticket for anyone to create and experience interactive cinematic / recorded VR today. It works to get more people on-board on the VR train and we saw that it can complement VIBEHub's bleeding-edge top-end rendered tech. VIBEHub now has access to our framework, expertise and early feature roadmap.

I also liked both Mathew and Alessio from the first contact. I felt they have done this out of love for VR, music and technology, with a real product, real technology and real contact network in the music industry. Many others just have an idea in a whitepaper. Call me old school but I like results and execution.

When my children grow up, media will be the same as VR. I feel that I have a personal responsibility to do what I can to shape VR into a truly active experience, which fuels our imagination and helps us to be more present in the moment. I think that the VIBEHub team is doing a great service to the VR industry and I genuinely feel that they deserve all our support in moving the VR industry forward, for everyones benefit.
