HXRC Developer Hub

Join the HXRC Developer Hub – shape the future of immersive technologies!

The Hub is a unique program for early-stage companies working within the realms of spatial computing, metaverse and associated technologies. It offers free work space and hardware, mentoring and networking opportunities, and a vibrant community of like-minded people to support you on your journey.

About the Developer Hub

Helsinki XR Center was created to serve as a development, service and community platform for the XR and spatial computing sector. One of the founding principles was to provide emerging companies in this space a fertile environment to grow and thrive, and reduce the early risks involved in hi-tech research and development.

Our teams consist of hardware and software developers, storytellers, interaction, game and service designers, as well as a cast of experts across a diverse set of disciplines. They create innovative solutions in various fields by utilising AR, VR, MR, metaverse, AI and similar technologies.

Two-stage development program

The HXRC Developer Hub program for early-stage companies consists of two stages:

1. A three-month trial period where the central idea of your vision is fleshed out, resulting in a demo. Can you show the skill and resolve to produce something concrete?

2. Continuation periods for three months at a time, where we set up a roadmap and development path together for the next 12 months, driven by the team, and follow up on progress at three month intervals with deadlines. The mission is to keep the team on a good track and ambitious pace while leaving room for trial and error, necessary pivoting and learning.

The teams are chosen based on need of the space and equipment, skill, dedication, and potential of the project idea.

  • co-working spaces and meeting rooms,
  • the latest headsets and other hardware,
