It is with delight that we can officially confirm EON Reality’s Virtual Trainer scooped the winning prize as the Best Product, for London Tech Week 2018!
During London Tech Week’s anchor event, Tech XLR8, Virtual Trainer was named the winner of the AR & VR Futureproof Awards. The reasons for the win included how it stood out as ‘the most innovative, business-relevant’ example of Virtual Reality. This is a huge accolade, given 2018’s explosive growth of the the AR and VR industry today.
The award-winning product fought off strong competition from huge technology industry players and partners including Nokia, the NHS and Lampix’s AR ‘smart surface’. Following the glitzy party at Gibson Hall in the City of London, EON Reality’s UK team will be picking up the accolade this week after the London Tech Week awards ceremony.

We are thrilled to not only be long-listed, but shortlisted as the leading finalist, because our peers within the category are currently known for quite interesting takes on innovation.

The Manchester development team wowed the AR and VR category judges with their commitment to making Virtual Trainer smart enough to cope with advanced, multi-user enterprise learning needs and data analytics. Virtual Trainer, a SaaS Product on EON-XR, was the strongest contender, as it showed judges how it was “transforming business, lives and society” through innovative implementation of VR.

Finally, Virtual Trainer was able to demonstrate world class innovation thanks to a feature set which supports advanced learning, integration and data capture.
