The VIC project is a European hub that specialises in training the leaders of the XR sector.

The Virtual Innovation Consortium (VIC) project, in which Youbiquo is actively involved, was created with the ambitious goal of creating a new generation of trained XR specialists ready to meet the needs of a rapidly expanding market. VIC’s training programme of excellence aims to address the lack of advanced digital skills in Europe. The programme consists of an international master’s degree, valued at 120 ECTS credits, along with advanced training and dedicated summer schools.

The project is primarily aimed at non-ICT professionals in fields such as education, healthcare, design and industry, with a particular focus on combining theory and practice in the field through collaborations with European industrial and academic partners. VIC is positioned as a key tool for European technological sovereignty, innovation and competitiveness, in part due to the prestigious STEP SEAL recognition awarded by the European Commission.

Youbiquo, a leading developer of XR devices and immersive artificial intelligence applications, is contributing to this initiative with the aim of promoting the adoption of XR technologies and fostering a more autonomous and secure European ecosystem, for the benefit of companies and professionals.

Please find below a summary of Pietro Carratù’s speech at the conference.

Youbiquo CEO Pietro Carratù will be delivering a presentation at the conference entitled “UX in XR Devices: Technical Challenges & Standard-based Approaches”. In this session, which is scheduled to take place from 5:00 p.m. to 5:45 p.m., Carratù will address the technical challenges related to user experience in the design of XR devices. He will demonstrate how the implementation of shared standards can encourage the creation of more effective and widely adoptable solutions, while also promoting innovation and usability.

We are proud to present a rich and multidisciplinary programme.

The VIC Conference 2025 will provide a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the latest developments in XR technologies. The event will feature thematic sessions dedicated to education, architecture, design, production and European funding policies. The event will feature prominent speakers from across Europe, including leading academics, researchers and professionals. These experts will present case studies, practical demonstrations and reflections on the challenges and opportunities presented by these technologies.

The programme also includes networking and Q&A sessions, encouraging the exchange of ideas and the creation of synergies between industry operators, companies, research institutions and professionals interested in digital transformation through XR.

A designated meeting point for individuals with an interest in the future of extended reality.

The conference is designed for a wide audience, ranging from ICT experts to professionals from other sectors eager to learn more about how immersive technologies can be integrated into their fields of work to improve processes, training and creativity. The hybrid format will enable remote participation or attendance at the Lisbon Aquarium, which is a venue of considerable aesthetic appeal.
