The world's leading technology organizations are members of the Metaverse Standards Forum.
Meta, Microsoft, NVIDIA, Alibaba, Epic Games, the World Wide Web Consortium and other major technology companies and organizations from around the world have founded the Metaverse Standards Forum, a space dedicated to building a generalized, open and inclusive metaverse on a global scale.
The new forum will offer a free and accessible space where all the world's technology organizations can collaborate together to establish new interoperability standards that will allow the construction of an open and interoperable virtual world.
Through this forum, its founders want to encourage institutional cooperation for the development of new open standards for the Metaverse, in order to integrate various technologies and innovations into the new reality that is being built on the Internet and that promises to completely transform the way in which we communicate and interact with others.

Stefano Corazza, Vice President and Fellow of AR at Adobe, who is also part of the Metaverse Standards Forum, commented during the Presentation of the new forum of Metaverse standards that establishing norms and provisions for this innovation is essential to “foster collaboration and allow this new ecosystem to truly flourish”.
Likewise, 0xSenses Corporation, an organization dedicated to creating virtual worlds through a variety of emerging technologies such as Virtual Reality and Blockchain, indicated that the creation of open standards will help disrupt the Metaverse. “come true faster and better”.
Asian giant Alibaba, also a founding member of the Metaverse Standards Forum, believes that standardization will be key to moving towards building new use cases and applications for the virtual world.
