Virtuix CEO Jan Goetgeluk joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has officially joined the Made for Meta program from Meta Platforms. Through the partnership, Virtuix plans to make its Omni One 360-degree treadmill compatible with Meta Quest headsets and games, significantly expanding Omni One's reach to the world's largest XR user base. Goetgeluk told Proactive that Meta operates one of the world's largest immersive platforms, with tens of millions of Quest headsets already in the market and continued investment in extended reality technologies. The Made for Meta program authorizes select third-party manufacturers to develop high-quality, certified products that seamlessly integrate into the Meta ecosystem. Virtuix expects to provide further details on product compatibility and timing in the near future. Omni One combines immersive virtual reality gameplay with meaningful physical activity. The omni-directional treadmill enables users to walk, run, crouch, and jump naturally in full 360 degrees within video games and other virtual environments, delivering a fully embodied gaming experience. Virtuix continues to scale its proprietary full-body movement technology across consumer, enterprise, and defense markets. The company reported 138% year-over-year revenue growth for the six months ended September 30, 2025, and has manufacturing capacity in place to support production of up to 3,000 units per month—representing approximately $100 million in annual revenue potential as demand accelerates. #proactiveinvestors #virtuix #nasdaq #VTIX #Virtuix #VTIX #OmniOne #OmniOneCore #MadeForMeta #MetaQuest #MetaPlatforms #VRGaming #ExtendedReality #XR #ImmersiveGaming #FullBodyVR #GamingInnovation #VRFitness #ConsumerTech #TechPartnership #GamingHardware #FutureOfGaming #RevenueGrowth #ScalableTech

Virtuix CEO Jan Goetgeluk joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the expansion of Omni One sales into Europe, marking a major milestone in the company's international growth strategy. Customers across key European markets, including Germany, the United Kingdom, France, and additional EU countries, can now place orders through Virtuix's dedicated EU and UK online storefronts. Initial shipments to European customers are scheduled to begin between April 13 and April 24, 2026. Goetgeluk told Proactive that the European rollout introduces Omni One Core, Virtuix's PC-connected consumer system built specifically for SteamVR gaming. Omni One Core delivers true 360-degree physical movement, allowing players to walk, run, crouch, strafe, and move naturally inside virtual environments while using their existing PC-based VR headsets. The system is designed to enhance immersion by translating real-world motion directly into in-game movement. Virtuix's expansion into Europe is supported by a strategic regional partnership with Unbound XR, Europe's leading online retailer of extended reality (XR) equipment. Under the agreement, Unbound XR will manage local fulfillment and logistics across both the EU and the UK, ensuring a smooth and efficient customer experience from ordering through delivery. Often described as the “Peloton for gamers,” Omni One blends immersive gaming with meaningful physical activity. Depending on the intensity of gameplay, users can burn up to 700 calories per hour. Virtuix noted that some customers have reported dramatic fitness results, including weight loss of more than 40 pounds in just four months while regularly using Omni One. To support rising global demand, Virtuix has established production capacity of up to 3,000 units per month, representing approximately $100 million in potential annual revenue. This scalable manufacturing capability positions the company to efficiently meet growing international interest. The company recently listed on the Nasdaq Stock Exchange and secured an $11 million investment, providing additional capital to expand sales and marketing efforts and support continued product innovation and development. #proactiveinvestors #virtuix #nasdaq #VTIX #Virtuix #VTIX #OmniOne #OmniOneCore #VRGaming #SteamVR #360Gaming #VirtualReality #ImmersiveGaming #GamingFitness #PelotonForGamers #EuropeLaunch #EUGaming #UKGaming #XRTech #UnboundXR #VRInnovation #GamingLifestyle #NasdaqListed #TechExpansion #GlobalGrowth

Virtuix CEO Jan Goetgeluk joined Steve Darling from Proactive to highlight the company's integration of AI-driven Gaussian splatting technology into its Virtual Terrain Walk (VTW) system, significantly enhancing its training and simulation capabilities for defense and security applications. Gaussian splatting is an advanced 3D reconstruction technique that rapidly converts real-world environments captured with 360-degree cameras into highly detailed, photorealistic, and fully navigable virtual worlds. Goetgeluk explained that VTW is a multi-user immersive training platform purpose-built for simulations where realism, spatial awareness, and physical movement are critical to operational readiness. By combining Gaussian splatting with Virtuix's omni-directional treadmill technology, VTW enables soldiers to physically walk, run, turn, and crouch in 360 degrees within geo-specific virtual environments. This allows military personnel to “walk the battlefield before they fight on it,” improving mission planning, rehearsal, and situational awareness in complex combat scenarios. The system supports collaborative training across more than 12 stations, either co-located or distributed across different geographic locations, enabling multi-user mission planning and leader rehearsals. Trainers can dynamically modify environmental conditions, introduce adversary forces, and adjust scenario variables in real time to simulate realistic and evolving battlefield conditions. Virtuix also noted early adoption of its technology within defense organizations. Omni One test units have already been purchased by Yokota Air Force Base, the U.S. Air Force Academy, and the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, underscoring growing institutional interest in immersive, physically active virtual training solutions. Beyond defense applications, Virtuix sees significant commercial opportunities for its VTW and Gaussian splatting capabilities across industrial and safety training, real estate visualization, and law enforcement. The company believes these markets can benefit from the same high-fidelity, location-based simulation and physically immersive experiences that are redefining how defense organizations prepare personnel for real-world operations. #proactiveinvestors #virtuix #nasdaq #VTIX #Virtuix #VTIX #NasdaqDebut #VirtualTerrainWalk #GaussianSplatting #DefenseTech #MilitaryTraining #SimulationTechnology #ImmersiveTraining #VRTraining #SpatialComputing #AI3D #SecurityTechnology #OmniTreadmill #DigitalTwins #ExtendedReality

Virtuix Holding CEO Jan Goetgeluk joind Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's milestone debut on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol VTIX, marking a significant step in Virtuix's growth as it scales its proprietary virtual reality technology across both consumer and defense markets. Virtuix is best known for its Omni technology, which enables full 360-degree movement in virtual reality, allowing users to walk, run, and move naturally within immersive digital environments. Goetgeluk highlighted the strong early traction of Omni One, the company's latest system designed specifically for home use. “We recently launched Omni One, and we reported 138% year-over-year growth in our S-1 filing,” he said, pointing to rising consumer demand for more immersive VR experiences. Omni One delivers full physical immersion by allowing users to physically move while remaining safely in place, creating a more realistic and engaging experience for gaming and entertainment. Beyond gaming, Goetgeluk emphasized the system's fitness benefits, noting that one customer reportedly lost 40 pounds in just four months through regular use, underscoring the platform's potential as a gamified fitness solution. Virtuix is also gaining momentum in the defense sector with the introduction of its Virtual Terrain Walk system. Powered by artificial intelligence and Gaussian splatting technology, the platform enables soldiers to rehearse missions in highly realistic virtual environments generated from real-world locations in a matter of hours. The system allows for immersive, repeatable training scenarios that can be rapidly customized to operational needs. Goetgeluk noted that Virtual Terrain Walk units are already deployed at key military institutions, including the U.S. Air Force Academy and Yokota Air Force Base, demonstrating growing adoption within defense training environments. Following its Nasdaq listing, Virtuix has strengthened its financial position, securing $11 million in funding from Chicago Venture Partners and establishing a $50 million equity line. These resources are expected to support the company's plans to scale operations, expand product development, and accelerate growth across both its consumer and defense businesses. #proactiveinvestors #virtuix #nasdaq #VTIX #Virtuix #VTIX #NasdaqDebut #VirtualReality #ImmersiveTech #OmniOne #VRGaming #VRFitness #DefenseTechnology #MilitaryTraining #AI #GaussianSplatting #MetaverseTech #ConsumerTech #GrowthStory #ProactiveInvestors

The Rice Energy Finance Summit (REFS) is an annual student-led conference promoting forward-looking discussions on the most relevant energy finance, investment and strategy topics affecting the global energy industry. And founders Jan Goetgeluk and Jesús Patiño say it's just another example of what you can do with the support and resources found within the Rice community & network. Jan is originally from Belgium, where he earned a bachelor's and master's in mechanical engineering from Ghent University, and came to Houston in 2007 as a project engineer for Katoen Natie, a Belgian petrochemical logistics conglomerate. Jan is the founder and CEO of Virtuix and the developer of the Virtuix Omni, the first virtual reality interface to move freely and naturally in video games and virtual worlds. Jesús has over 15 years of experience in the oil and gas industry. He began his career in the oil field with M-I SWACO in his home country of Mexico before expanding into deepwater drilling assignments in the US Gulf of Mexico, Equatorial Guinea, and Ghana. Jesús is a strategy and business development consultant at AerMill Solutions. He previously worked at Oceaneering International as a commercial manager for intervention services. They join host Scott Gale ‘19 to discuss how they first met at Rice international student orientation many years ago, how Hurricane Ike affected the first year of the conference (as well as their friendship), and the importance of swinging big.Episode Quotes:A reflection on rich experiences during and after Rice16:40 [Jan] It's such an incredible rich experience being at Rice Business School. It's a unique time in your life, and for me, it's still today the best time of my life. [Jesus] And that goes definitely to the program and also for the alumni life, right? Once you're an alum, there's always something interesting going on. And being outside Houston, it's harder to remain involved, but attending the events outside Houston and trying to be part of it. You always get more than what you put in.Ideas are like buses 18:39 [Jan] If you want to organize a conference and make it a big success, it's just a matter of doing it. A lot of people have a lot of ideas in life. And I always say that ideas are like buses. There's another one every five minutes. You have to do it, and you have to execute and make it happen.The Rice Business School advantage13:05 [Jesus] Every time I speak with a student, nowadays, I always tell them that there's only two years in their lives where they are going to be able to start an email saying, "I am a Rice MBA student that wants to speak with you." And that line is powerful because it really resonates with people; you get their attention, and that's a door opener that you shouldn't let go.Show Links:TranscriptGuest Profile: Jan Goetgeluk LinkedIn Profile Jesús Patiño's Professional Profile on Rice University Other links: About the Rice Energy Finance Summit  Virtuix
