Our collaboration will offer creators and brands a comprehensive solution to reach their target audience in the rapidly growing metaverse ecosystem, where immersive experiences are becoming increasingly popular. The amalgamation of audio and immersive technologies will create a disruptive ecosystem for the segment-agnostic brands to leverage both the digital platforms and technologies to enhance engagement; the byproduct of which will be probably a win-win for all the stakeholders involved right from the consumers, brands and various other channel partners involved in the journey,” stated founder and CEO of Hubhopper Gautam Raj Anand.

Our brand partners will be able to reach their customers in immersive formats as well as audio formats. This will result in better brand recall. The whole point of Hubhopper & Superfan joining hands is to add fuel for brands to achieve their end objectives,” mentioned Snehaal Dhruve Founder and CEO of Superfan.
