HTC Vive has announced a new cloud software suite of applications as the VIVE XR Suite, specifically created to improve remote collaboration, productivity, events, social and culture. HTC Vive will be officially launching the suite of applications during Q3 2020 throughout China and will roll out further afield during 2021.
To accompany the release of the new cloud software suite, HTC Vive has partnered with a number of companies including Baidu, Hewlett-Packard, BCW (Burson Cohn & Wolfe), VSTECS and Activation Group.
