Washington, D.C. – The XR Association (XRA) unveiled the XR EcoMap in 2020, a groundbreaking tool designed to connect job seekers with employment opportunities within the immersive technology industry. Launched in collaboration with the WXR Fund and leading XR companies such as Meta and Qualcomm, the XR EcoMap serves as a comprehensive resource for individuals looking to understand which organizations are driving growth in the XR sector and what roles they have available. This initiative underscores XRA’s commitment to fostering a vibrant and diverse XR community by making it easier for talent to find and engage with potential employers.
Users of the XR EcoMap can create a free profile to enhance their experience on the site. The platform allows users to contribute by adding missing data to existing profiles, saving organizations and content of interest, building custom lists, and unlocking additional information. This interactivity not only empowers users to tailor their job search but also enhances the overall quality of the information available, creating a dynamic and constantly evolving resource for the XR industry.
In a bid to showcase the full diversity of the XR community, the XR EcoMap also highlights companies led by diverse founders. By doing so, XRA and its partners aim to increase visibility for underrepresented groups within the industry, ensuring that the true breadth and potential of the XR ecosystem are recognized and celebrated. The XR EcoMap is a significant step forward in supporting the growth and inclusivity of the immersive technology sector.
