Become a medium for implementing digital marketing of company products, communication media between companies and the community or for collaboration, and information media to the public such as events, products, etc. The most important thing is to be able to open a wider new market.

  • Video-based content, live streaming, etc.

  • VR and AR

Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) are the same thing, the difference is the technology. VR typically consists of a digital world that you can see and immerse in, while AR uses digital information that overlays physical information to create a virtual environment in which you can interact. If a company uses VR and AR for digital marketing, it can attract the attention of the target market so that people can try products virtually and find out what the company’s products are like.
