Gemba, a startup in virtual reality<\/a> (VR), has secured $18 million in a Series A fundraising round led by Parkway Venture Capital.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

The money invested is intended to provide the business the financial clout it needs to expand into Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and North America.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After landing contracts with AstraZeneca, Nike, and Carlsberg to deliver lifelike training experiences through VR headgear, Gemba gained a proprietary status in the virtual reality educational\/training industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nathan Robinson, CEO of Gemba\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a>, praised Gemba as a substantial solution to one of the key problems faced by transformative leaders seeking to provide their staff with useful and affordable training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parkway Venture Capital's co-founder and general partner, Jesse Coors-Blankenship, expressed his excitement about adding Gemba to the company's expanding portfolio of cutting-edge future technologies. Gemba costs roughly $7,250 for each session, making hosting a masterclass an expensive endeavor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An business subscription can be purchased for $120,000 annually for a team of 50 users; at a bigger scale, they can cost up to $1.2 million. Speaking of experience, Aptiv's augmented reality workforce training program, which enables the top automotive supplier to impart in-depth knowledge at a relatively low cost, is a recent illustration of why more than 4000 executives trust Gemba.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The $18 million fundraising round is only one of the tens of millions of dollars going into the creation of cutting-edge VR technologies. Institutions including Animoca Brands<\/a>, HSBC, Qualcomm, and investment management company Invesco have functioned as conduit pipes for previous rounds of VR venture finance into the year 2022.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
