About Emperia

Emperia is an immersive commerce platform on a mission to reimagine the ecommerce space by enabling retailers to boost their online channels through virtual stores.. Operating at the intersection of web2 and web3, Emperia’s technology enables brands and retailers to build, manage and track their virtual experiences.

Having just raised $10m at Series A, they’re looking to build a new technology frontier of ecommerce through highly differentiated virtual experiences which extend brands' physical retail experience into the digital world, adding a layer of interactivity and personalization.

Emperia simplifies your omnichannel efforts, creating a metaverse retail store, so your loyal shoppers can find you wherever, whenever they are, in an exciting, yet familiar space that engages them, tells your story and ultimately generates sales.

With clients including Bloomingdales, Dior, Harrods and many more, this is just the beginning for them. Now expanding into the US and other geographies, they’re bringing a whole new meaning to virtual reality within retail.
