With most people spending more time in their homes over the past year, home spaces have become more multi-use than ever intended, leading to increased forms of virtual interaction. And these virtual experiences are likely to increase – 56% expect to be visiting remote locations virtually by 2025.* The phenomenon of people connecting with one another and with information and data in a collective virtual space has come to be known as entering the “Metaverse.”
The latest IGT Special Report, “Lottery and the Metaverse,” gives an overview of how this concept intersects with lottery. The report draws on data from research partner Foresight Factory to propose new ways for lotteries to engage consumers with access and content.
