Can VR transform education? HTC China President Alvin Wang Graylin has over 20 years of experience in tech business management, including 15 years focusing on industries in greater China. During that time, you could consider him a serial entrepreneur – he’s founded four venture-backed startups in the mobile and internet space covering social media, ad tech, search, big data, and media. Additionally, he has held $100+ million P&L roles at public companies such as Intel and Trend Micro. Alvin received his BS in electrical engineering from the University of Washington, MS in computer science from MIT, and MBA from MIT’s Sloan School of Management. In this episode, Alvin talks about how VR has evolved throughout the years, how we can use it to harness the potential of virtual learning, and how it gives us the ability to restore our human interaction in the virtual space.
