Technology companies including Meta and Microsoft, as well as groups like the World Wide Web Consortium and others have joined to create the Metaverse Standards Forum to build compatibility and industry standards, Reuters reports. Apple is not a member of the group thus far. The forum’s chair and Nvidia Vice President of Developer Ecosystems Neil Trevett said the forum aims to enhance communication between standards organizations and companies to foster “real-world interoperability” in the metaverse.
