What to Expect at Meta Connect 2025
According to Meta, the event will lay out the company's future in AI and the metaverse.
Viewers of the event can expect updates on smart glasses, according to reports. Meta is expected to show off new consumer smart glasses with a display.
The glasses could be part of Meta's partnership with EssilorLuxottica (OTC:ESLOY), the owner of Ray-Ban and Oakley.
Meta is also expected to show off a wristband with gesture controls, which could put the company into new wearable categories alongside its plans for smart glasses.
According to Meta's website, the company is "creating the future of human connection" and will highlight this at the event.
Meta has put a larger emphasis on artificial intelligence in recent years and launched Meta Superintelligence Labs in June of this year. Investors could get more details on Meta Superintelligence Labs and its early progress in creating new growth verticals for the tech giant.
Last year's Meta Connect saw the company highlight its more affordable Meta Quest 3S mixed reality headset, show off prototypes of the Orion smart glasses and highlight expansion into AI opportunities.
"We are getting closer to achieving the dream of Reality Labs," Zuckerberg said at last year's event.
The Reality Labs division of Meta has experienced sharp losses in recent years and also undergone job cuts. More highlights on how the division will grow revenue and turn profitable could be key highlights from this year's event.
