A Week of Innovation Without Borders: Immersive Training Transforming the Industry

Is it possible to be at a mining site in northern Chile, at a new-energy event in Santiago, and at a technical conference in Mexico, all in the same week? At Yoy, the answer is yes.

Introduction

We recently experienced one of the most dynamic weeks in our history, deploying across multiple destinations and simultaneous events. But beyond the distance traveled, what really drives us is the impact of our work: helping our clients bring Virtual Reality (VR) into new spaces and transform the way they train their teams.

Today's industries face complex challenges, from the energy transition to the goal of zero accidents in high-risk operations. In this context, how does Yoy contribute? By creating safe, immersive, and highly effective environments to train the people who keep the country and the region moving. This is how we experienced this week of milestones.

1. Mining and Operations: High-Standard, Zero-Risk Training

Mining and heavy machinery operation leave no room for error. At Yoy we know that the best way to learn how to operate complex equipment or handle an emergency is by living through it, but without the risks of the real world.

This week, we joined ABB at Safemining 2026, discussing how immersive technology is key to the safe mining of the future. We also traveled north to take part in CIMIT Tarapacá 2026 alongside Collahuasi, showing that technological innovation must be present directly in regional development hubs.

We also supported Sigdo Koppers in its mobile crane training processes. Through our mining simulations, operators can practice critical maneuvers and build muscle memory in a 100% controlled environment, optimizing time, reducing operating costs from using real machinery, and, most importantly, protecting human life.

2. Risk Prevention: Training the Experts

Workplace safety is a fundamental pillar in any industry. That's why we're proud to work hand in hand with leading institutions.

This week we took part alongside Multiservice Grúas in a training session for risk-prevention experts from ACHS. Contributing through Virtual Reality in this field means giving prevention officers unprecedented visual and practical tools. With VR, experts can assess hazards, identify substandard conditions, and simulate accidents to understand their causes, radically improving preventive decision-making in the field.

3. New Energy and International Expansion: Getting Ready for the Future

The world is changing, and energy matrices are changing with it. We were present alongside ACHS at Hyvolution Chile 2026, the leading green hydrogen event. As new energy industries emerge, new safety and operating protocols emerge with them. Our Virtual Reality solutions for the energy sector are the perfect bridge for training the workforce in emerging technologies, standardizing processes even before the physical infrastructure is finished.

Finally, innovation knows no borders. We traveled to Mexico to take part in the FICEM 2026 Technical Congress (Inter-American Cement Federation), showing how our VR solutions adapt to the international cement industry. We understand that efficiency and safety challenges are global, and our solutions are designed to scale internationally.

Conclusion

Different places, different industries, and unique challenges, but with one shared purpose on the horizon: to keep bringing disruptive innovation to companies.

At Yoy we don't just develop software; we create experiences that save lives, optimize processes, and prepare workers for tomorrow's challenges. This week of simultaneous deployment reflects the trust that major industry players place in us.

And as we said on our social media: this is just the beginning.
