Leonardo DiCaprio News: Actor Invests in Another Tech Company
Leonardo DiCaprio has once again put his money to good use as he invested in a company that develops mind-machine interfaces in the healthcare industry. While it's true that DiCaprio is known for his charity works apart from his remarkable performances in several blockbuster movies, his business investments are seldom talked about.
According to a report, the actor has invested his money in, at least, six tech firms for the past eight years, including Rubicon Global and Fisker Automotive, companies that are in line with his climate change advocacy.
It has been learned that the actor has once again invested his money in a company that is already making an impression in the healthcare industry, MindMaze, which is a neuro-computing company that has been building mind-machine interfaces. While MindMaze has already been successful in helping patients recover from strokes and brain injuries, reports claim that it is set to expand into the virtual reality technology.
With virtual reality set to explode in the near future, it is expected that MindMaze is one of the companies to rise high through the said technology. According to reports, the company has already raised $100M in capital for its expansion to virtual reality and is expected to fuse its already developed MindOS, which blends neuroscience, mixed reality, and artificial intelligence by enabling real-time integration of signals from the brain with the environment the person is in.
Once fully developed, MindMaze's product will not only benefit the entertainment and gaming world but will also bridge the emotional gap between a user's physical and virtual worlds, too.
"MindMaze technology has already impacted the lives of many people, and it is poised to define the way we will experience and create content in the future. I am excited about the possibilities of MindMaze's technology, especially for its potential to be a driving force in media and entertainment in the years to come," DiCaprio said in a released statement as he announced his investment in the company.
