This month, Adam Green speaks to Denise Zheng, lead for Responsible Metaverse at Accenture, and Mark Carell-Billiard, global lead of Technology Innovation at Accenture labs, about the booming interest in the metaverse and the key challenges now faced to ensure it is developed responsibly. There is significant pressure on companies to stake out their place in the metaverse, as they explore use cases and principles to guide responsible development. From energy use to privacy, this podcast looks at the main risks of the metaverse, and the role of partnerships, industry codes of conduct, regulations and technology itself, like green software, to provide guardrails and ensure the metaverse is a force for good. The discussion also explores the key skills and competencies necessary to excel in the metaverse era as companies navigate the opportunities and risks of web3.
