The AI revolution, underscored by compelling financial reports from major tech companies and the anticipated release of ChatGPT-5, is gaining momentum. While much of the focus has been on the race for computing power and chip acquisition, another significant trend is quietly re-emerging: the immense potential of the metaverse, newly supercharged by these advances in AI.

Recent strong performances from companies like Meta Platforms (META) and Roblox (RBLX) have renewed market confidence and sparked fresh excitement for the future of virtual worlds. But beyond these giants, smaller, more agile innovators may offer the most exciting glimpse into the future. One such company is DBiM (Doing Business in Metaverse).

As its name suggests, DBiM is dedicated to exploring, building, and empowering commercial activity within the metaverse. The company’s vision is to create a highly efficient, intelligent, and autonomous economic service platform. By harnessing cutting-edge AI Agent technology and an innovative platform-based model, DBiM aims to unlock unprecedented business value and interactive experiences for both individuals and enterprises in the virtual realm.

What drives a new venture like DBiM to dive headfirst into the metaverse economy? Three core factors are at play.

1. A Vast Market Opportunity

The future looks bright for virtual economies. According to data from iResearch, the global market for virtual goods and services was valued at $4.7 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach $14.1 billion by 2030. This growth is fueled by the rapid expansion of virtual transactions, the increasing popularity of Chinese virtual content overseas, and widespread adoption of online payments.

Within this landscape, metaverse scene construction services represent a critical and rapidly expanding sector. Driven by the urgent need for businesses to establish virtual platforms and environments, this market segment generated $5.7 billion in revenue in 2023. iResearch forecasts it to grow at a staggering compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 48.90%, reaching $92.5 billion by 2030. This presents a massive runway for DBiM‘s growth.

2. A Vision Born from Experience

The company’s mission is deeply rooted in the founders’ past experiences. Several members of the DBiM team have backgrounds in cross-border trade, where they directly encountered the friction caused by geographical distance, communication barriers, and business inefficiencies. This inspired them to create a more streamlined and effective solution for global traders, particularly small and medium-sized merchants. To achieve this, they assembled a multidisciplinary team of experts from traditional trade, digital commerce, AI/machine learning, and finance, officially launching their full-scale metaverse initiative in 2021.

3. The Foundational Support of Technology

Technological progress is the ultimate enabler. The rapid development of the AI industry, especially the evolution of general-purpose Agents, provides the technical foundation for DBiM to build its comprehensive “metaverse economic service platform.” A key part of their roadmap is the development of a custom “AI OS” for the metaverse. This operating system will serve as the ecosystem’s intelligent core, offering standardized development tools, APIs, AI algorithm modules, and data processing capabilities to ensure the platform is open, scalable, and highly collaborative.

While keeping an eye on the future, DBiM is actively building in the present. The company is already providing virtual world scene construction services, leveraging VR, AR, 3D modeling, and AI. It has partnered with multiple enterprises on projects involving virtual exhibitions, 3D model creation, event configuration, multimedia production, and AI Agent research and development. Furthermore, its SaaS platform, DBiM.com—which integrates VR editing tools, content, and AI agents—has already earned recognition from a growing base of clients.

Looking ahead, DBiM plans to consolidate all its web services into its unified virtual world platform. As industry leaders like OpenAI accelerate development in the general Agent space, DBiM is poised to harness AI Agents to create immersive experiences that transcend physical limitations. The goal is to enable users and businesses to build, publish, and maintain compelling and interactive virtual environments for any scenario, from VR showrooms and virtual trade fairs to social events, live broadcasts, and concerts.
