RecoVR: Mosul continues to receive industry recognition as a stand-out VR experience of 2016

Last night The Drum celebrated 10 years of the Dadi Awards, their flagship awards event, recognising the best digital work from around the world.

RecVR: Mosul, a collective reconstruction, our collaborative project with The Economist Media Labs in New York was shortlisted in the ‘Best use of VR’ category and we are over the moon it has picked up another award at last nights ceremony!

“We’re thrilled and honoured to receive the Best use of VR award for RecoVR: Mosul. The aim of the project was to show how you can use VR to experience something which no longer exists in the real world, and its fantastic to be recognised for achieving this.”
