The holodeck for hybrid workshops and trainings
HYBEAM is an early-stage mixed reality platform that brings remote participants into physical workshop and training spaces using avatars, spatial audio, and shared virtual objects. Our prototype enables real-time interaction between in-person and remote team members –
making hybrid collaboration feel natural, immersive, and truly shared.
Our vision
We believe the future of work and learning lies in spaces that are both physical and digital – where distance doesn’t mean disconnection. Our vision is to create a seamless hybrid experience that empowers people to co-create, learn, and collaborate across boundaries. Whether it’s onboarding a new team member, running a design sprint, or hosting a global training session – HYBEAM will make it feel like you’re all in the same room.
What we’re working on
We are currently testing the first prototype of HYBEAM in collaboration with pilot partners from education and industry. The focus: hybrid workshops and onboarding experiences in sectors like battery technology, UX/UI education, and corporate learning.
