The Minverso project seeks to bring workers from the Chilean copper mining industry into the metaverse.
Investors in Chile launched the Minverso platform, the first in that country that seeks to train personnel from copper mining companies with tools in the metaverse.
The CEO of the startup, Rodrigo González, exposed the following to Bloomberg Line:
“The conception of the industry has to do with the use of new technologies that leverage the construction of the metaverse, in this case in 3D models, among others.”
The startup Minverso will have showrooms that will help train miners, who will be able to review virtual infrastructure, simulate explosions and perform complex equipment repair operations. Meanwhile, the company seeks to increase the productivity of miners and train people in the use of the metaverse.
Descubre.vc, a newsletter site, twitted that, “@minversocl allows workers in the mining industry to virtually observe mining operations, check machinery, simulate explosions, and make equipment repairs.”
The adoption of Blockchain technology advances in Chile: days ago, Huawei announced its expansion and improvement of the Cloud computing segment in Latin America, more specifically, Chile and Mexico. The commitment to these two nations is made with the aim of promoting the digital transformation and development of the region.
According to the words of the president of Huawei Cloud for Latin America, Fernando Liu, the company will open in 2023 two areas for the installation of data centers: one in Chile and the other in Mexico.
Huawei executives seem to be seeing increasing opportunities in terms of business localization strategies in different Latin American countries, which in turn could translate into technology transfer for the region.
With a global cloud structure installed in 29 regions connecting more than 170 countries, Huawei also announced the addition of new technologies to the Latin American network between 2022 and 2023, which will make it faster and more efficient.
Adoption of the metaverse grows in Chile
Minverso is a creation of Metaverso Limitada, which aims to expand into the United States in the first quarter of 2023, through an investment round, in addition to the fact that one of its partners is FLSmidth, according to Bloomberg.
In July, Chile carried out an initiative with which it plans to modify its constitution and in the midst of that, several bills are going through Congress. One of these projects was the Fintech Law, presented this year to Congress, and which is currently being discussed in the Senate. Its main objective is to regulate a series of assets, among which are cryptocurrencies.
Cristián Reyes, senior counsel at Aninat Abogados and legal advisor for FinteChile, explained to BeinCrypto that the destiny of the Chilean crypto industry should be aimed at having a good relationship with banks and other areas of the economy since the Blockchain allows many more options besides investment.
“The call is for collaboration because I have no doubt that this is here to stay and that we are going to start implementing the Blockchain mechanism much more often, not only to invest but also to pay or to have the full faith in our medical certificate, of our deeds or companies. We have quite a fertile path to be able to implement the Blockchain that is behind cryptocurrencies.”
