Dominic Eskofier co-founded the largest unofficial community for VR (reddit.com/r/oculus), started the VR Germany meetup group and is co-founder of EUVR.org – a non-profit organization pushing the European XR industry. After co-founding the VR startup realities.io at Boost VC, an accelerator in Silicon Valley, he gathered international corporate experience at Nvidia as their Head of Virtual Reality (EMEAI). Now, as Head of Eden Europe, he develops the European business for Eden, a startup from South Africa on the convergence of XR and emerging tech. Eskofier joined us for a podcast and talked about his past in VR and the very first duct-taped Oculus Rift prototype. He does not take a doom and gloom approach to XR, but believes it’s time to move up a gear for our industry.
