A conference in Coventry later this year will be taking a look at the serious business of virtual worlds.

Called, appropriately, Serious Virtual Worlds, it will be taking a look at;

‘The Reality of the Virtual World’ and takes a close look at how virtual worlds are now being used for serious professional purposes. Many organisations are now actively researching and deploying virtual worlds. Serious Virtual Worlds is your introduction to the serious uses of virtual worlds.

As you would expect IBM will be there talking about retail, but it’s interesting to look down the list of speakers and see the likes of PA Consulting (talk entitled: Virtual Worlds for Business in Second Life)  and BP (Virtual Worlds for Public Safety).
