BERLIN, GERMANY - Nearly fifty global leaders will speak on the evolution of the Internet at the upcoming Metaverse Summit 2007 - an interactive two-day conference to be held here at the Estrel Convention Center, December 6, 7.  This premier event brings together futurists, venture capitalists, technology entrepreneurs, and industry leaders to explore social and economic trends of the 3D-Web and "immersive" computer applications.

Helmut Reul, organizer of the Metaverse Summit, explains, "The web is quickly moving away from its two-dimensional beginnings towards its virtual and 3D future. We're all literally becoming surrounded by virtual enhancements to the real physical world in which we live. The Metaverse Summit 2007 was conceived to explore and shape this next generation of the Internet - the Metaverse - in all its manifestations."

The content of the Metaverse Summit is based on the recently published Metaverse Roadmap Overview. This comprehensive overview looks at four main scenarios in which the Metaverse can manifest - Virtual Worlds - Mirror Worlds - Lifelogging and Augmented Reality. These are four different perspectives and the Metaverse includes elements of all scenarios. The Metaverse Summit will cover a broad spectrum of perspectives, including state-of-the-art solutions and mash-ups, the interactions and linkages between the four elements as well as the social and business implications.

Registered participants from industry - and the general public at large - are invited to learn more about how the 3D-Web and Virtual Worlds are impacting the way we communicate, collaborate, work and live. Through conference presentations, panel discussions and interactive events, attendees will explore the challenges and opportunities these significant new fields create.

The Metaverse Summit brings together internationally-renowned speakers and successful entrepreneurs shaping of all aspects of the emerging Metaverse. We invite everyone interested in the social relevance and market potential of 3D immersive environments and virtual web technologies.
