HALO Talks: Elevating Wellness
Business
Zvi Goffer is a former finance executive and father who was inspired to take action when planting the seeds of college education in the minds of his two kids. His idea for Campus VR took root when he brought his kids to his alma mater, a state school in New York . . . which unfortunately didn't do a good job representing themselves on their website. Wanting to do more than just show pictures, he decided to take action and figured there had to be a better way to engage kids in the modern era versus just "point and click."
Zvi dove into the VR world, learned it from the ground up and they actually ended up building their own robot! Campus VR has since evolved into a game-changing platform for top colleges and teams around the country. He discusses the power of VR in creating immersive experiences and how it can revolutionize the way businesses attract and engage potential clients. Pete and Zvi dive into the future of VR tech, its potential impact on various industries, and serves as a captivating exploration of entrepreneurship and innovative thinking.
On the importance of college being accessible and VR aiding in the athlete recruiting process, Zvi states, "You shouldn't have to have a certain amount of money in your bank account, or be in a certain geographical location, or worry about the convenience of your parents being able to take you on a trip and miss work or whatever. These should not be hindrances [in the college decision process.]
