Way Experience S.r.l. is a start-up born in 2019, which operates in the tourism and cultural sector with the aim of conceiving, implementing and disseminating digital projects for the public, through the use of augmented reality technology. The company’s mission is to innovate the traditional approach to museum visits in art cities, through the proposal of innovative “phygital” tours – physical and digital – which transform attractions into virtual journeys through time through art and history. The experiences offered by Way enhance the legacy of historical figures – such as musicians, writers, painters or scientists – by recreating the settings in which they lived through virtual reality and allowing the visitor to immerse themselves in their eras and works. Over the last few years, over 80,000 people have participated in the various experiences created: Inside Monet, You Are Leo, The R-evolution Park, You Are Darwin, Geronimo Stilton Live Experience – Viaggio nel Tempo, You Are Verdi, Vivere Inimitabile. Esperienza in realtà virtuale and Duomo smart experience.
In 2023, WAY Experience was supported by Fondazione Social Venture Giordano Dell’Amore (or “FSVGDA”) with an equity investment of €200,000 as part of “Impact4Art”, while from 2024 can count on a further investment of €500,000 made by GDA Impact, the impact investing program worth over €60 million managed by GDA Venture and promoted by FSVGDA and Fondazione Cariplo to support the development of Italian social entrepreneurship.
