The vision
The team behind the Immersive Experience Network are currently working to develop the organisation into a self sustaining social enterprise. This year, we’ve launched our Live Immersive Creator Huddle events, and we’re currently developing our research program and our online networking app.
Our plan is to incorporate the Immersive Experience Network as a Community Interest Company and launch as a membership funded organisation . Until then, we are fund raising for our seed fund to help us support the community and develop the organisation.
How will your support be used?
- Subsidising the cost of our Huddle events. Our main priority is to keep them accessible and so we price tickets below what it costs us to put the events on.
By becoming a supporter you help us ensure that we can keep prices low to ensure cost isn’t a barrier for new or young creators.
- Helping pay for educational content to be recorded and edited from the Huddle events, and from Immersive Creators who want to share their experience or knowledge with the community
- Commissioning research like the immersive audience report.
- Helping us pay for staffing and the general admin costs of running a small startup business
