Virtual reality, augmented reality, the metaverse - these technologies are becoming ever more present in our everyday lexicon.  For Annie Eaton, CEO of Futurus an Atlanta-based software development company, these are tools she has been using to bring immersive content experiences to businesses throughout the country. Specializing in game development and micro-location enabled devices that pinpoint locations without using a GPS, Eaton is considered a pioneer in the industry. 

 

Set to visit Groundswell Startups on Thursday, October 20th at 5:30 PM, Eaton will share the latest trends in augmented and virtual reality, how she bootstrapped her tech company and best practices for building an innovative culture in the workplace.
