S²Cities brings 575 participants together in an immersive global convening with MootUp

The customer, S²Cities, a global initiative focused on urban safety and well-being for young people, faced the challenge of convening international stakeholders in a way that was sustainable, inclusive, and engaging without the high cost and carbon emissions of travel. They partnered with the vendor MootUp and its web-based metaverse platform to build an immersive virtual event.

MootUp provided a browser-based 3D metaverse experience that was accessible across devices and featured live AI translation, custom-branded environments, and interactive avatars. The solution successfully engaged 575 participants from eight countries, avoiding an estimated 900 metric tons of CO₂ emissions. Post-event feedback showed 80% of attendees found the event engaging and meaningful, and it empowered young people to take a central role in the discussions.
