The metaverse is a parallel and independent virtual space from the real world, where users can have their own virtual identities and digital assets to engage in a wide range of social and intellectual activities, including socializing, entertainment, creativity, and education. Leveraging six key supporting technologies (blockchain, artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, interactive technology, electronic gaming, and networking technology), the metaverse features immersive experiences, strong social interactions, low latency, virtual identities, and diverse content, empowering transformation and advancement in fields such as social networking, gaming, healthcare, exhibitions, and education.

The metaverse and the education industry complement each other. On one hand, the current development of the metaverse faces multiple pain points, including a shortage of specialized talents, unclear business models, and uncertain business risks, which urgently require a professional education and training system to deliver a diversified talent pool and provide talent certification services, including in various specialized areas such as technology, risk management, and business management. This system should also offer guidance and incubation services for startups and provide business consulting services to leading enterprises interested in entering the metaverse. On the other hand, the metaverse is also disrupting the education industry itself. Metaverse education constructs virtual learning environments closely related to educational content, enhancing the vividness, authenticity, and interactivity of teaching materials. This transformation shifts students from passive learning to active experiential learning, which helps improve the quality of education and the effectiveness of industry training. It brings a completely new experience and opportunities to traditional teaching methods.

Frost & Sullivan, a leading market research and consulting firm, has been closely monitoring emerging trends such as the metaverse, WEB3.0, and educational technology. They have officially released the "Metaverse + Education Technology White Paper," which is the world's first comprehensive white paper focusing on metaverse education technology. This report, starting from the metaverse education industry, provides a detailed analysis of the current status of metaverse development, the development of metaverse education technology, industry challenges, and analysis of leading companies in the industry.
