For the second consecutive year, Stereopsia will take place in BOZAR (Brussels, Belgium) on 5‐7 December in BOZAR. Also known as “World Immersion Forum”, Stereopsia brings together the world’s greatest professionals in the field of immersive technologies and content: 3D Cinema, 3D Sound, Virtual and Mixed Reality.

This event ‐ which has been uniting worldwide experts for the past 9 years ‐ is opening its doors to the general audience this year, under the banner ‘Brussels Virtual Week’.

Professional section: Stereopsia gathers over 80 experts coming from the four continents.

For 3 days, several activities are organized, including:
‐ 11 thematic conferences targeting the use of immersive technologies in different fields
(entertainment, industry, health…)
‐ A Scientific Conference (International Conference on 3D Immersion ‐ IC3D)
‐ The XR Tech Venture Forum pitching 17 projects in front of potential investors (Venture
Capitalists or industrials)
‐ A Business Dating to promote professional exchanges
‐ A Networking reception
‐ An exhibition area with booths and XR demonstrations
‐ An XR Meetup

Stereopsia also features an Awards competition for 3D and 3D VR contents. The Lumiere Awards of  The Advanced Imaging Society of Hollywood for the EMEA region (Europe, Middle East & Africa) will be handed out on 7 December during a glamourous Awards dinner. Brussels will be, after Hollywood,  Beijing, Tokyo and Seoul, the place that will have the privilege to bestow the famous Lumiere  Awards. Those awards are the most prestigious in the world for immersive contents.

Stereopsia is therefore the meeting place for worldwide professionals sharing the same passion for immersive technologies and their use. While 3D is a technology that is already well known by the  wide audience, especially popularized by the film industry these past years, Virtual, Mixed and Augmented Reality have been added to the mix, and encompass more and more sectors alongside.
