Microsoft Teams Unveils Metaverse Meetings

Microsoft Teams has officially rolled out its new immersive events feature, enabling users to host meetings within a 3D virtual environment. This innovative tool allows attendees to create personalized avatars, navigate interactive spaces, and engage with live speakers, aiming to enhance the feeling of presence during remote work.

The platform offers a selection of pre-designed 3D settings or the flexibility to customize environments with personal branding, images, and videos. Seamless integration with existing Teams functionalities simplifies scheduling, invitations, and attendee management, making it easier to organize professional gatherings.

This strategic move signifies the discontinuation of Microsoft Mesh, the company's earlier metaverse initiative. By integrating these capabilities directly into Teams, Microsoft streamlines its offerings and provides a unified, immersive experience for corporate events, onboarding, and training sessions.
