What is a 3D virtual summit?

Each 3D virtual summit is an interactive digital experience shaped for a specific state market.  It is not a webinar or a broadcast. Instead, it’s akin to entering your favorite online game being played simultaneously by your peers. Attendees move through rooms, visit dynamic exhibits, chat with one another, and engage in conferences.
