While it’s easy to equate virtual reality with gaming, numerous industries outside the video game space have begun to seriously consider VR for a variety of commercial applications. We’ve seen this demand for business-focused VR systems grow rapidly; to address it, we have launched Vive Business Edition (Vive BE).

Available this month, Vive BE allows people and organizations to order Vive VR systems with additional services adapted for business and commercial environments. In addition to the full Vive VR system, Vive BE comes with commercial licensing, a dedicated Business Edition customer support line and a 12-month limited warranty. Businesses can buy multiple Vive BE systems, and have the option to order large quantities.

Priced at $1,200 USD, the Vive BE system includes:

Complete Vive BE System Vive BE Headset Vive BE Controllers x 2 Vive BE Base Stations x 2

Dedicated Vive Business Edition customer support line

12-month limited warranty (certain exclusions and limitations apply)

We have a strong network of partners, ranging across industries from Automotive to Medical to Design, working hard to make their products and services successful, and Vive BE will help them do that.

Dassault Systèmes, who developed the 3DEXPERIENCE platform as a collaborative virtual environment for businesses to create unique customer experiences, is broadening its horizons with the help of Vive.

“Virtual reality has already proven its appeal among consumers and is now revealing its potential for enterprise,” said Olivier Rivet, Vice President High-Tech Industry, Dassault Systemes. “Vive helps us provide our customers from all industries with premium virtual reality experiences that offer unlimited perspectives to inspire product ideation and creation.”

Supporting the growth of our partners through the application of Vive technology is incredibly important to us, and we will continue to do all we can to make VR a useful and powerful part of the global business sector.
