title = "Exploring the knowledge leakage risks associated with the design and development of virtual reality environments: A case study",
abstract = "A number of high tech organisations have now recognised that the combined use of virtual reality environments (VREs) with precise descriptions of construction and operational details may pose possible knowledge leakage risks, thus representing a threat to organisational knowledge management. This paper discusses the findings of a research project which examined the case of a company that designs and develops this type of information system. The research design for the project comprises of an exploratory case-study approach, which uses interviews. The interviews were conducted with managers and technical staff from the case company. These interviews aimed to elicit the risks associated with VREs, including business, project and technical risks. The paper concludes by proposing solutions and recommendations on how to minimise and remediate risk occurrences in this type of organisations.",
