Philanthropy

In 2017 Cevat launched a new company, The TMRW Foundation, independently from Crytek. It is a for-profit organisation that develops AI- and 3D-related technologies. One of the foundation’s initial projects involved being contracted by the UAE Ministry of Health in the creation of a metaverse service centre. As of October 2022, the TMRW Foundation employed 100 people. In 2022, Cevat and The TMRW Foundation premiered ROOM 3D at the GITEX Technology Fair in Dubai. ROOM 3D, a virtual teleconferencing platform, had taken approximately three years to develop and the aim is to reduce video call fatigue and let users interact with objects and their peers in a natural and learned way. It is the first live product operating on patented and browser first RealityOS, a cloud-based social 3D communications platform which has been developed by the TMRW Foundation.
