Next/Now, a progressive VR agency, was hired by a hazmat logistics company to develop a proof of concept (POC) for an online 3D experience that could enhance dangerous goods training. The project involved a team of 6-10 members and was completed in September 2019. The VP of marketing and product management at the logistics company found Next/Now through a LinkedIn search and chose them for their outstanding experience, great credentials, and local presence.

Under Armour, the global sportswear company, engaged Next/Now for the development of out-of-the-box interactive experiences. The projects focused on AR/VR, Google Cardboard, and 3D face mapping technology. During the construction of Under Armour's Boston flagship store, Next/Now created a VR barricade to preview the new location's look. In a separate project, they finished a permanent install with 3D face mapping. The partnership, which began in 2016, continues and has involved an investment of just under $150,000.

360 CHICAGO, the observation deck located on the 94th floor of the former John Hancock Center, hired Next/Now to redesign and modernize their entry queuing experience. The scope of work included transforming the ground-level concourse into an immersive, story-driven experience that complements the excitement of the observation deck. Next/Now designed and built nine unique zones, each telling the story of 875 N Michigan Ave, Chicago past, present, and future. The project involved 6-10 employees from Next/Now, and the company was selected for their close geographic location, great culture fit, and aligned company values.
