Assessing investment with the value chain model

INTRODUCTION

Another way to evaluate potential investments is by using the Metaverse value chain model.

This model outlines the key categories of Metaverse investment. It can be utilized to assess how many ‘touch-points’ an opportunity may have. This model can help companies:

• Identify companies with diversity in product and scope.
• Identify companies with focus on specific Metaverse niches that may be of investment interest.

Here are three examples of this model in use with Unity (a programming engine used to create video games and other applications), Epic Games (the creator of Fortnight), and Roblox.
