Europe calls for the emergence of a Metaverse that characterises itself for being open,
transparent, inclusive, ethically and environmentally responsible, but also capable of restoring
the technological sovereignty of EU industry in the global scenario of competition. Such a European
Metaverse would foster the following benefits: a) Higher accessibility, greater freedom and
control, lower barriers to entry and more equitable distribution of resources; b) Interoperability,
privacy and security as well as data ownership: an open human-centric Metaverse would allow
different virtual worlds to interoperate with each other; c) More innovation, creativity, and
social benefits: an open human-centric Metaverse would foster a collaborative environment where
developers and users could work together to create new experiences and features. In that regards,
the overarching aim of OPENVERSE is to contribute to laying the foundations of such a European
Metaverse by establishing a knowledge base on it, setting up and animating a community of
stakeholders, testing a methodology that combines user co-creation and XR in real world cases of
industrial and societal relevance, exploring relevant ethical, legal, IPR and governance
challenges, and producing industry standards as well as a technology and policy roadmap and
recommendations to guide the future establishment of the Open Metaverse concept in Europe and
worldwide.
