Katara, in collaboration with Aspire Katara Investment (AKI), yesterday announced a partnership with interactive 3D software provider EON Reality.
Katara and AKI will use the immersive and 3D interactive EON ICube mobile system at the world’s leading property market event, MIPIM, in Cannes from March 12-15 to reveal the next phase of the Cultural Village.
The ICube mobile system will allow event visitors to virtually walk through and experience the existing Katara site and to reveal new aspects of its development. The complete site will include both commercial and private properties, as well as a large area for cultural facilities such as theatres, concert halls and exhibition galleries.
“We are thrilled to collaborate with AKI to use the EON ICube mobile system at MIPIM. This hi-tech interactive 3D solution allows our future customers, partners and investors to visit Katara virtually and experience it in its entirety,” said Dr Khalid bin Ibrahim al-Sulaiti, general manager of Katara.
“We are proud to unveil new aspects of this exciting development, which will include residential, commercial and retail units. Katara has quickly become the metropolis for arts and culture in the GCC and we look forward to seeing visitors enjoy our other facilities.”
This is the first time that the EON ICube mobile system is being used for a large property market event. It offers a unique way to experience property development projects months or years before completion, enabling crucial planning and investment decisions to be made in a more informed manner.
