XR is in its infancy, and this development platform is so new that it has really opened opportunities for women to emerge as leaders in this industry. XR Marin is seizing this unique opportunity to be the catalyst leveraging this open landscape to cultivate and catapult our female students to become the next generation of young leaders in XR.
