We’re excited to share our 2015 digital infographic highlighting important trends for the industry. Whether you’re an investor, startup founders, corporate executive, or a virtual reality enthusiast, we think you’ll be interested by the information we’ve compiled in our July 2015 Industry Report.
Given the amount of publicity virtual reality companies have received in the past few years, it’s natural to assume that investment activity must also be soaring. The good news is that it’s true. In fact, venture capitalists have invested over $746 million into new VR companies in the past five years alone.
Our 2015 infographic breaks down aggregate figures and points to something industry insiders are well-aware of — VR is in hyper-growth mode:
- Since 2010, investors have poured over $746 million into new VR companies
- 2015 will be a record year for investments into VR companies
- At 35.4%, most of the money has gone towards head-mounted displays
- California is the global headquarters to half of all new VR companies
