What is Phygital Transformation

Educational Perspectives on Digital Technologies in Modeling and Management
The expression originated for consultancy, for the strategy, for the analyzes and for the design of the experiences that involve the physical with the digital with the economic and social biases. It is the alteration of the state of a system that has objects, applications and digital solutions with physical mechanisms and is supported by development and by designers for the elaboration of interfaces for immersive recursions. It is important to have the context that has the overlap of the physical with the digital in place and space with synchronous or asynchronous time. There are journeys and processes that use the four-dimensional to show the inseparability of virtuality and reality. It is a manifestation that integrates experiences with physical and digital elements and highlights the feelings, emotions, attitudes and behaviors that affect and are affected during the phygital journey. It is necessary to reflect on the challenges and opportunities of uniting the physical with the digital and verify which characteristics result from the inseparability of the physical and the virtual in the metaverse ecosystem and in the phygital platforms. There are emerging principles and practices [knowledge] in phygital transformation and the impacts must be measured. In phygital business, the business model aggregates physical and digital opportunities and structuring and well-being are physical and virtual. It is noteworthy that there are many challenges for the realization of phygital capabilities and skills, as well as the ecologies of the platforms.

Metaverse in Higher Education and the Metaversities: Disruptive Technologies and Innovations in Industry 5.0 for Phygital Transformation
Neli Maria Mengalli (Faculdade São Bernardo do Campo, Brazil) and Antonio Aparecido Carvalho (Faculdade São Bernardo do Campo, Brazil)

Abstract
This chapter was written based on an exploratory study, reports, and articles current at the time of writing; however, over time, it tends to have historical characteristics in relation to metaversity. The objective was to highlight the growth mindset and disruptive technologies and innovations for the metaverse in higher education. In the exploratory research, it was revealed, in the metaverse ecosystem, the existence of metaversities, the possibilities of the metaverse for higher education institutions and the presence of phygital transformation in educational contents and activities. It was concluded that new research and new paradigms are needed for disruptive technologies in the metaverse ecosystem and metaversity has the potential to bring together realities, simulations, campus replicas, time and space travel, and meaningful and immersive experiences with augmented reality, virtual reality, mixed reality, and extended reality.

Creation of Digital Solutions in Higher Education: Strategies With Hands-On and Disruptive Technologies in Phygital Transformation
It is an expression of a business nature for consultancies and for strategies that involve the analysis and design of experiences that need the physical and the digital to exist in the social and economic conformation. Existence needs changing states and representations in systems that have digital solutions, applications and applicability with physical mechanisms and supports developed for the elaboration of interfaces and immersive resources. It needs development and design for the consumer experience. Contexts are superimposed with digital from the physical with synchronous or asynchronous time. The processes exist for the existence of the journeys that need the four-dimensional for the inseparability of the real with the virtual. The manifestation integrates the experiences with elements of the physical world with the universes created in the digital and highlights the emotions, feelings, behaviors, and attitudes that affect people represented or not by digital humans that can affect other representations in phygital journeys. In phygital transformations, it is necessary to reflect on the opportunities for both worlds, as well as the challenge for advances in the journeys that unite the physical with the digital. It is necessary to situate what results from the fusion of the physical with the digital to mitigate phygital stress in the metaverse ecosystem and in the platforms available for phygital experiences. All phygital impacts must be measured. In phygital business, the change is in the physical and in the digital and in the overlapping of the two universes to aggregate opportunities and mitigate adversities, because well-being is both physical and virtual. It must be recognized that there are many challenges to phygital skills and human capabilities, as well as to the development of the ecology of phygital platforms. The term implies the implementation of disruptive technologies with processes that involve the physical with the digital to maintain competitiveness in highly technological contexts that are in constant change, whether political, social, cultural or economic.

Metaverse Ecosystem and Consumer Society 5.0: Consumer Experience and Influencer Marketing in Phygital Transformation
It is supported by objects and applications as digital solutions that contain physical mechanisms with virtual interfaces and contents. The contexts are fundamental, because they show the overlapping physical and virtual place and space. In the consumer's or client's journey, there are processes that advance over time and show the dissolution between virtuality and reality. It is an experience that integrates physical and digital elements with emotions, feelings, behaviors and that affect decisions in the phygital journey.

The Intrinsic Property of a Representation in the Phygital Transformation: A (Meta) Influence as a Force With Magnitude and Direction in the Metaverse
It is a term coming from the business world and highlights the combination of the physical and the digital. It is based on interfaces and context to be situated and related to the industry, society, and consumption 5.0. In the user and consumer journey, there are processes that change over time and space, which highlights the dissociation of reality and virtuality. In the integration of physical and digital, emotions, feelings, behaviours, and intelligence, whether artificial or emotional, mix in the consumer's experience with the brand and affect the phygital journey through strategic decisions and meaning.
