A new Guinness World Record was set for most people using virtual reality displays at the same time, when the Israeli company Mobileye made a presentation to 1,867 business leaders at the 2017 YPO Edge conference in Vancouver, Canada, on March 3.
Mobileye cofounder and CEO Ziv Aviram is a member of YPO (Young Presidents Organization), a global community of chief executives dedicated to lifelong learning and idea exchange. He surprised the gathering of YPO global business leaders from 130 countries with a virtual reality experience of riding in a driverless car.
