Karim Ibrahim and Toufic Assaf are the founders of Robocom VR, a virtual reality startup aiming to revolutionise the gaming industry. They were both awarded a spot in the latest installment of the MENA Forbes 30 under 30 class of 2020 due to the impact that their company has had in the region.
Karim and Toufic start by telling us how they entered the field of virtual reality (1:08), putting themselves before the company (5:40), what Robocom VR is (12:09), and Dubai pioneering the field of virtual reality (14:27).
We then recount our gaming experiences (17:25), talk about the games that Robocom VR currently have (20:27), why the gaming industry lags behind in the Middle East (22:28), and how Robocom’s ambitious nature helped them acquire “impossible” deals (25:23). We also talk about society’s reaction to them making the Forbes 30 under 30 (33:15), implications of social media on our daily lives (38:09), whether VR will negatively effect human interaction (41:00), regulating technology (48:02), and how Robocom wants to become the “Ready Player One” of the world (56:18).
