DreamPark, a startup creating mixed-reality (XR) theme parks, announced it has raised $1.1 million in seed funding. The round was led by Long Journey Ventures, with participation from Founders Inc. DreamPark's innovative technology transforms real-world spaces into immersive, interactive experiences using readily available headsets and QR code access points, offering a unique and scalable approach to location-based entertainment.
The funding will fuel DreamPark's ambitious expansion plans. This includes deploying access points in new locations across the country, forging partnerships with major intellectual property (IP) holders to develop branded theme park experiences, and expanding its fleet of rental Meta Quest 3 headsets. The company also plans to grow its development team to accelerate content creation and platform enhancements.
DreamPark's technology offers a cost-effective alternative to traditional VR venues, requiring minimal capital expenditure and offering rapid deployment. The company's business model focuses on revitalizing underutilized spaces and increasing foot traffic for property owners, creating a win-win situation for both businesses and consumers. The company's unique approach to mixed reality entertainment positions it for significant growth in the rapidly expanding XR market.
DreamPark's founders, with backgrounds in entertainment and technology, aim to create a globally accessible mixed-reality theme park experience, blending the physical and digital worlds seamlessly. Their vision is to foster social interaction and community engagement through innovative and accessible technology.
