Each year, World VR Forum choses one country to be the guest of honor of the Annual Summit. Following China in 2017, Canada will be our country of honour in 2018. Canadian companies are at the forefront of digital media innovation. Canada’s strengths in film, game development and visual effects have made it one of the prime hubs for VR content creation and application development. In celebration of Canada VR/AR excellence, a central market place is reserved for Canadian companies to showcase their high-quality work.

Often nominated the most innovative country in the world, Switzerland is a pioneer in the field of Virtual and Augmented Reality. Thanks to universities and research institutes which offer an excellent pool of technology know-how and talents, Swiss start-ups and companies are our pride and joy and hold a special honourable place in the WVRF Annual Summit Market.
