💼 Alibaba’s reduction of positions in the Yuanverse department has attracted widespread attention inside and outside the industry!
Recently, Alibaba has made personnel adjustments to its Metaverse division, Metaverse, and this change has attracted widespread attention both inside and outside the industry.
Although the news of layoffs is eye-catching, Alibaba has not given up its exploration of the metaverse. Instead, the company is adjusting its strategy to focus on deepening the development of Metaverse applications and services.
According to the South China Morning Post, the Metaverse department will continue to advance its business after this round of adjustments, and plans to shift its focus to developing more practical Metaverse applications and tools while improving service levels to customers.
As part of its Metaverse plan, Alibaba’s investment layout in the Metaverse field is very significant. They not only led the US$60 million financing of Chinese AR glasses company Nreal, but also actively promoted the development of cloud operating systems.
Through these strategic investments, Alibaba is gradually building a solid foundation in the Metaverse ecosystem.
At the same time, large technology companies around the world are turning their focus to artificial intelligence and are more cautious about investing in the Metaverse. Previously, Baidu's Metaverse business leader Ma Jie resigned in May; later, Meta Platforms disbanded its custom semiconductor development team in October and turned to the field of AI.
However, although investment enthusiasm in this field has cooled down, according to data analysis by Global Markets Insights, the global industrial metaverse market is still expected to achieve rapid growth in the next few years.
Conclusion:
Alibaba’s personnel adjustments in the Yuanverse field mark the company’s new strategy for this emerging market. Although the global technology industry has become more cautious about the Metaverse, Alibaba still shows its confidence in the long-term development of the Metaverse by investing in AR technology and cloud operating systems.
This not only reflects the company's rapid response to market trends, but also heralds its determination to seek new growth points on the metaverse track. With the expected growth of the global industrial metaverse market, Alibaba's forward-looking layout may bring it new competitive advantages.
