AI, XR, and digital twins are reinventing the way we design, visualize, and interact with products, data, and the built world; while the spatial age is redefining customer experience as we know it.

Explore the next frontier of visualization and commerce as practitioners share how they’re delivering real-world impact: 1) Design & operational visualization: Accelerating design cycles, enhancing collaboration, and optimizing lifecycles. 2) Customer engagement & growth: Reaching new audiences, boosting sales, and unlocking deeper consumer insights. 

Topics include:

Workflow integration: Embedding AI/XR into enterprise systems to iterate faster, reduce waste, and shorten time-to-market
Collaborative design: Real-time 3D collaboration to improve decision-making and stakeholder alignment
Reality capture & 3D pipelines: Converting physical spaces and CAD/BIM/scan data into immersive assets with photogrammetry, LiDAR, no-code/generative 3D tools, etc.
Simulation & planning: Using digital twins and real-time data for layout optimization, scenario modeling, and process simulation
Insight-driven decisions: Making complex data intuitive and actionable; VR-based data capture
Next-gen customer experiences: From product visualization and configuration to virtual try-on and immersive commerce
AI-powered personalization: Recommendation engines and AI assistants for tailored discovery, education, and customer support
Business impact & scaling: Tracking engagement, conversion, and other metrics; building sustainable content and governance workflows
