On this episode of the Sandwich Society, I talk to Martina Welkhoff co-founder of WXR Fund who is investing in the next generation of VR startups and making sure it's as diverse as possible.
Martina is a VR founder herself having pushed the boundaries in social VR and in doing so has recognized the unique opportunity that the creation of a new computing platform provides for women and underrepresented minorities.
Now with her fund and accelerator, she is focused on the female lead VR startup and has invested in some very promising startups in different verticals but we focus on the entertainment and media ones in our chat - we talk about the art of storytelling, hosting events in virtual reality and the business case for VR.
