Backed by real-world data from ForgeFX customer deployments, the session showcased how immersive learning outperforms traditional methods across multiple key performance indicators:

⏱ 20–40% faster training compared to traditional instruction
💲 20–30% reduction in fuel and maintenance costs
🚀 40–70% faster skill acquisition
💡 30–50% lower total training costs
✈️ 30–60% reduction in travel and downtime
📈 20–50% acceleration in time-to-market

These results underscore what ForgeFX clients already know: simulation-based training isn’t just effective—it’s transformative. By enabling learners to make mistakes safely in virtual environments and understand real-world consequences, ForgeFX solutions drive retention, confidence, and performance.

“We design custom immersive training simulators that challenge learners, provoke mistakes, and reveal consequences—because the best lessons often come from failure, not from success.”
— Greg Meyers

A Community Driving the Future of Enterprise XR


Greg’s presentation was met with enthusiasm and curiosity from an audience of XR professionals, enterprise leaders, and innovators all working toward the same goal: unlocking the potential of immersive technology for real-world impact.
