Mission Statement

XR4EUROPE is the Pan-European association dedicated to uniting XR professionals, organizations, and initiatives across the continent. Our mission is clear: to drive the development, promotion, and representation of XR innovation, industry, and creativity proudly originating from Europe.

XR4EUROPE traces its roots back to the groundbreaking XR4ALL project, which ran from December 2018 to August 2021 and received support from the European Commission’s H2020 program. XR4EUROPE has emerged as an influential voice of the XR community, trusted and endorsed by European institutions.

As a member of XR4EUROPE, you gain access to a comprehensive suite of services designed to boost your professional growth, from fostering collaborative opportunities to providing invaluable resources. Whether you’re an established industry leader, a burgeoning startup, or a passionate advocate for immersive technologies, XR4EUROPE offers a platform for connection and European innovation.
