Virtuware

Virtuware is a pioneering VR development studio established in March 2020, with roots extending back to 2016. The company’s portfolio covers a range of productions and consultancy projects, including landmark works such as Karaoke Central - a celebrated virtual world that has attracted over 7 million visits and was included in the Venice VR Expanded collection for La Biennale di Venezia - as well as projects utilised by the British Film Institute and the London Film Festival.

With extensive experience in social VR, the company has been a key contributor to one of the world’s largest social platforms. Virtuware’s innovative spirit was further validated with a win at Meta’s Presence Platform Hackathon in December 2023. This deep expertise in immersive, socially driven experiences is exemplified by breakthrough projects like StageTime, a brand-new social platform which rapidly ascended into the Top 100 on Meta Quest and received direct promotion from Meta. StageTime’s broad appeal is further underscored by its daily events—such as Trivia Takedown, Improvical, Open Mic Night, and Dancedown - that continuously engage and connect a diverse audience.
