Largest ever HYPERVSN holographic display unveiled at Las Vegas MSG Sphere

State-of-the-art music and entertainment venue , MSG Sphere , is the world ’ s largest spherical structure at 366 feet tall and 516 feet wide – tall enough to fit the Statue of Liberty inside . Now open to the public , the entrance atrium area showcases HYPERVSN ’ s largest-ever 30 x 50-foot holographic display wall alongside real-life humanoid robots that greet you on arrival , a

360-degree avatar capture and a beamforming sound display .
“ We believe this is the world ’ s largest holographic technology project to date . Experiences of this size won ’ t just stop attendees in their tracks but lead to unforgettable moments from the first interaction ,” said HYPERVSN ’ s CEO , Kiryl Chykeyuk .
Built for immersive experiences , the MSG Sphere sits at the heart of the Las Vegas strip at The Venetian Resort . The ambitious 50-foot-high installation project included 420 individual SmartV HYPERVSN displays fixed to a secure rack that hangs from the atrium wall . These displays are then connected and synchronised with the HYPERVSN SmartV system to form one cohesive 2D or 3D HD holographic visual image in immaculate detail .
“ Expectations among the Las Vegas crowd are immense , with the race to impress with bigger and better spectacles a given down the strip . The HYPERVSN SmartV Wall at the MSG Sphere is a beautiful piece of a larger puzzle , creating immersive , unforgettable experiences that have never been done before ,” said Chykeyuk .

Half of all new businesses fail within three years of opening

New analysis from Experian reveals the difficulty new businesses have in establishing themselves as successful , on-going enterprises .

Around 4 % of new businesses have ceased trading by the end of the first year of operations , the analysis found . But the failure rate rises significantly to more than a third ( 34 %) by the end of the second and to half ( 50 %) within just three years of opening .
Meanwhile , nearly two-thirds of businesses ( 60 %) found as being in the highest risk categories for accessing new borrowing are firms which can be defined as ‘ young ’ – ones which have been formed in the last five years .
The analysis was revealed before the UK Black Business Show in October , which aimed to support and arm budding black entrepreneurs with the information they need to get their business off the ground , including the importance of a positive business credit score .
James McGarva , Managing Director of Business Information Services at Experian , said : “ Our analysis reveals just how tough it can be for new businesses to establish themselves in the short-
and medium-term , with a huge amount for entrepreneurs to consider to give themselves the best chance of success .
“ New businesses are the foundation of our economy , and being a business owner is a fantastic and rewarding ambition . Every company , no matter how big or small , has a credit score , with it being the key to accessing credit to help it thrive , as well as being a highly predictive indicator of the business survival .” x
