Release Date: 08/18/2022

Description: Hi everyone! In today's episode of Looking Forward: Opportunities for Job, Career, Business, and Investment Seekers, we’re going to speak about a trend that’s only beginning to take root. I’m speaking about… the metaverse. Like the Internet, the metaverse seems to have been operating underground for awhile, but now it’s finally being spoken and written about quite regularly. And, also like the Internet, it’s anticipated that the metaverse will bring with it a boatload of opportunities.In my conversation with our great guest expert, you’re going to learn about what the metaverse is, what its implications are, and where it may take us in the future. More importantly, you’ll learn about the wide spectrum of opportunities the metaverse may offer you… almost no matter where your skills and interest lie… or, where you live.And, in true Looking Forward: Opportunities fashion, you’ll also get some tips on how to take the first steps toward capitalizing on one or more of these opportunities.To help us do that, we’ve been on a metaverse expert. He’s Justin Lacche.Justin Lacche is a proud Oregon State University alum. After receiving his MBA at OSU, Justin held leadership positions with multiple Fortune 500 companies. After years of creating and leading corporate blockchain, cryptocurrency and omniverse programs (we’re talking about both metaverse + brick and mortar programs), Justin opted for early corporate retirement.
