Holo\u00adlight was foun\u00added in 2015 and has been doing pionee\u00adring work in the field of AR\/VR ever since. As a proven indus\u00adtry-tested enter\u00adprise strea\u00adming plat\u00adform in the immersive and XR (virtual and augmen\u00adted reality) market with over 150 renow\u00adned custo\u00admers such as BMW, Nokia and Amazon Web Services, Holo\u00adlight has set the bench\u00admark for XR strea\u00adming. In the age of digi\u00adtal trans\u00adfor\u00adma\u00adtion, the tech\u00adno\u00adlogy has great poten\u00adtial in various sectors.<\/p>\n
Holo\u00adlight Hub enables global avai\u00adla\u00adbi\u00adlity and easy deploy\u00adment of XR appli\u00adca\u00adti\u00adons. Compa\u00adnies use this to improve their indus\u00adtrial proces\u00adses in product deve\u00adlo\u00adp\u00adment, manu\u00adfac\u00adtu\u00adring, trai\u00adning or service. This supports compa\u00adnies in setting up future-proof XR infra\u00adstruc\u00adtures and promo\u00adtes new forms of colla\u00adbo\u00adra\u00adtion and digi\u00adtal work\u00adflows in 3D. With the new invest\u00adment, Holo\u00adlight aims to further deve\u00adlop the XR strea\u00adming plat\u00adform and gain addi\u00adtio\u00adnal custo\u00admers in its key indus\u00adtries such as auto\u00admo\u00adtive, aero\u00adspace, engi\u00adnee\u00adring and many more.<\/p>\n
Impres\u00adsive growth and forward-looking vision Florian Haspin\u00adger, CEO of Holo\u00adlight, explains: \u201cAs a pioneer in the field of XR strea\u00adming for compa\u00adnies, we aim to stream every XR app via our Holo\u00adlight Hub. In doing so, we want to help compa\u00adnies over\u00adcome the hurd\u00adles of using immersive tech\u00adno\u00adlo\u00adgies.

Its ability to assert itself on the global market reflects the strength and poten\u00adtial of Euro\u00adpean tech\u00adno\u00adlogy leaders,\u201d says Monika Steger, Mana\u00adging Direc\u00adtor of Bayern Kapital. \u201d<\/p>\n Hubert Aiwan\u00adger, Bava\u00adrian Minis\u00adter of Econo\u00admic Affairs, adds: \u201cCompa\u00adnies like Holo\u00adlight bene\u00adfit from a dyna\u00admic inno\u00adva\u00adtion land\u00adscape, as is the case here in Bava\u00adria.
