BUSINESS CONCEPT #319 - VIRTUAL REALITY (VR) TOURISM HUB
Creating immersive, remote experiences of wāhi tapu (sacred sites) that generate revenue without requiring physical foot traffic, protecting sensitive sites from erosion.
This venture develops a high-fidelity digital platform to provide immersive, remote access to Te Tai Tokerau’s most sensitive and sacred landscapes. It serves the global education and armchair travel markets, generating revenue while ensuring the physical whenua remains untouched and protected.
The Problem: Overtourism at wāhi tapu (sacred sites) leads to physical erosion, environmental entropy, and the risk of degrading the spiritual integrity of the land.
The Solution: We provide an "Original Participation" experience through high-resolution VR. By creating digital twins of these sites, we allow guests to observe and engage with our stories without the physical footprint that causes ecological and cultural decline.
