Digital Communities: How apps, gaming, and VR can create inclusivity
Capital Factory and Bumble are teaming up to explore the influence emerging technologies have on online communities.
Digital Communities aims to educate and communicate best practices for building safe, inclusive digital communities. With the expanding presence of online gaming, social apps, and augmented and virtual reality, we see more and more technologies building expansive online communities.
How do we ensure these communities are safe and inclusive?
Our goal is to explore the current state and dynamics of digital communities while encouraging responsible development for today’s digital innovators.
