As we wrote yesterday, Metanomics will broadcast the launch of Linden Lab's much-anticipated Nebraska platform on November 4. Metanomics is now turning the launch into its latest mixed reality event which will open with the launch announcement, followed by a discussion of virtual worlds, enterprise, immersive media and enterprise firewalls, under the title "The Virtual Enterprise: The Future of Work."
The time for the broadcast will be 11:15 PST, and the event will take place live at the E2 Conference, on the Web, or through the Metanomics Second Life broadcast.
In addition to Mark Kingdom, the event will feature Neil Katz, an IBM Distinguished Engineer and a member of the IBM Academy of Technology, Douglas Maxwell, the Program Technology Lead for NUWC Metaverse Strategic Initiative, and Steven Aguiar, Program Manager for NUWC Metaverse Strategic Initiative. IBM and NUWC Metaverse Strategic Initiative have been involved in the Nebraska closed beta and the panel will discuss "the benefits, lessons learned, barriers and opportunities which arise from integrating virtual world solutions into the enterprise."
From the event listing:
Join Mark Kingdon, the CEO of Linden Lab/Second Life, to learn more about how hundreds of enterprises and governments are working both in Second Life and find out how they are saving money while taking giant leaps in creativity, innovation, and productivity. Kingdon will also unveil and demo the much anticipated “behind the firewall’ product (code named “Nebraska”). A few enterprise customers will join him to discuss the product and future outlook of immersive, virtual workspaces in a mixed-reality event at the Moscone Center and in Second Life.
