Under the theme of “Bridging between realities: transformative, inclusive and sustainable XR”, the conference committee from Maastricht University School of Business and Economics and Zuyd University of Applied Sciences brings the conference back to the heart of Europe for its 10th anniversary. Here, we aim to take stock of the past 10 years of XR research and practice, and set the agenda for the next decade by building bridges between different disciplines, research and application fields, and academia and practice.
