India has a huge role to play in the coming of the metaverse, Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg says
According to the CEO of Meta Platforms Inc. (formerly Facebook (NASDAQ:FB)), India has an important role to play in building the metaverse, thanks to its large pool of creators and developers.

India’s talent pool -- the engineers, developers and creators, and your whole vibrant start-up ecosystem are playing a huge role in shaping the future.The Meta boss noted that India already has one of the largest spark AR developer communities and is on track to become the largest app developer base globally by 202.
