In this hour-long show, the founder and CEO of Facebook introduced Meta, the new name of his company.

He also presented his vision of the concept: a mix between virtual reality and augmented reality where to work, meet people and even play will be possible.

It is therefore from this video that Iceland was inspired to address tourists.

The latter wears the same outfit, the same gestures ... The place and the arguments are also similar.

With this video, Iceland hopes to make tourists want to come and visit the island in the real world with a touch of humor: “It's completely immersive, with water that is wet.

With humans with whom they meet ”.
