Facebook's Oculus is hoping that VR will catch on in the business world.
The company just announced a new corporate initiative for the Oculus Rift, Oculus for Business, onstage at the Oculus Connect Conference.

The package will look to give corporate clients the tools to use VR , encompassing everything from training and product development to consumer-facing marketing campaigns.
Oculus for Business already boasts an impressive roster of corporate partners, with big names like Walmart, Cisco, Deloitte, and Audi headlining. The onstage demo showed off how Audi might use the rig, visualizing the interior of one of its luxury cars.
The Oculus for Business bundle starts at $900 for one Rift headset and the accompanying hardware — but the more important part of the deal comes with the commercial licensing and warranties, along with preferential customer service. The program is now available in the U.S., UK, and other countries.
