Response:

The Company is an actively managed platform company, as a significant portion of the Company’s core operations, and its subsidiary company operations, are conducted at the Glimpse parent company level. The parent company provides a centralized executive management team that is actively engaged with the management, coordination and operational/technical direction of the eight active subsidiaries. While each subsidiary targets different industry segments, the platform that Glimpse provides is the infrastructure (e.g. all personnel become employed by the parent company, often moving employees from one subsidiary to another as needed) that removes certain stresses on the management of each subsidiary. The platform creates an ownership structure that incentivizes collaboration, which is fostered by the centralized executive management’s leadership, and shared operational, technical and financial resources.

While the subsidiaries initially supplied the pool of talent and intellectual property, the parent’s management directs, promotes and recommends value-add-collaboration by pooling the technical know-how and facilitating symbiotic business expansion strategies. Please also see the Company’s response to the comment #19 below for a corresponding accounting analysis.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations, page 34

| 6. | You
disclose on page 15 that the size of your community of customers on your platforms is critical to your success, and your ability
to achieve profitability in the future will depend, in large part, on your ability to add new customers, while retaining and
even expanding offerings to existing customers. Please tell us whether you monitor your retention rate, the number of new
customers, the number of existing customers, and payment volume, including whether you track payment volume from new clients
and existing clients separately. To the extent material, please provide a qualitative and quantitative discussion of the changes
to these metric and their impact on your revenues, and tell us your consideration for quantifying the increase in revenues
attributable to new and existing customers for each period presented. |
| --- | --- |
| | Response: |
| | For
the reason stated below, the Company does not believe enhanced disclosure is necessary because retention and similar
metrics are not currently material indications for the Company’s business strategy. |
| | The Company has experienced revenue growth and an expanding customer
base across industries. However, Glimpse operates in an early stage industry, and early customers are exploring various options for AR
and VR solutions. As such, there is a high degree of variance on the evolution of customer acquisition engagements. Accordingly, while
customers are on-boarded and the Company’s software product and solutions are integrated, measured and digested, the Company may
not have any additional contracts with such customers during this period or thereafter. In some cases those customers could re-engage
after they have evaluated the Company’s solutions and in others more time could be necessary or the project abandoned. Given this
dynamic, traditional customer performance metrics, such as retention or churn, volume, recurring, etc., are not yet applicable. As the
industry matures and the Company increases its scale, customer performance metrics will become more relevant and the Company will track
these closely. Until such time, Glimpse will keep records of customers, contracts and pipeline and monitor those on a regular basis. |
| 7. | You
disclose on page 18 that you have made a number of acquisitions in the past. Please tell us whether your period-to-period
growth is attributable to your strategy related to acquisition-driven growth. To the extent material, please discuss and quantify
the relative impact of the acquired businesses on your revenue and the results of operations for the periods presented. |

Response:
Please
note that Company’s last acquisition was in April 2018 and any period-to-period growth described in the Company’s
S-1 is not driven by acquisitions.
Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended December 31, 2020 Compared to December 31, 2019, page 37
8. For
all periods presented, please revise to separately quantify each significant factor contributing to the change for each of
the line items discussed within the results of operations section. In regard to revenues, for example, please clarify the
amount of revenues generated from VR/AR projects, solutions and consulting retainers, identify the factors that drove growth
in each and provide corresponding quantification of each factor or offset. Refer to Item 303(a)(3)(iii) of Regulation S-K.
Response:
The
Amendment contains enhanced disclosure in applicable sections.
9. In
regard to Cost of Revenues, for all periods presented, please identify, discuss and quantify costs related to internal staffing
costs and third-party expenses.
Response:
The
Amendment contains enhanced disclosure in applicable sections.

11. You
state that while each subsidiary company owns its own IP, there will be perpetual licensing agreements between your subsidiary
companies. Please disclose the material terms of the licensing agreements and file the agreements as exhibits to the registration
statement or tell us why this information is not material.

Field: Page; Sequence: 5

Field: /Page

Response:
At
this time, the inter-subsidiary licensing agreements do not exist and the Company’s S-1 disclosures have been revised to
describe the Company’s expectation to form these agreements in the future.
Economic Dependence, page 51
12. We
note your disclosure that one customer accounted for approximately 12% of your total gross revenues during the year ended
June 30, 2020 and a different customer accounted for approximately 19% of your total gross revenues during the year ended
June 30, 2019. Further, two customers accounted for approximately 53% (35% and 18%, respectively) of your total gross revenues
during the six months ended December 31, 2020 and two different customers accounted for approximately 26% (15% and 11%, respectively)
of your total gross revenues during the six months ended December 31, 2019. Please identify the customers and revise to disclose
the material terms of your agreements with these customers, including, but not limited to, the terms and termination provisions.
In addition, please ensure you identify, quantify and analyze known trends, demands, commitments, events and uncertainties
related to customers or investors, whether affiliated or unaffiliated, that are reasonably likely to have a material impact
on your financial results. Refer to Item 303 of Regulation S-K for guidance.
Response:
As mentioned in Item 6 above, the Company operates in an early stage
industry, and customers are exploring various options for AR and VR solutions and acting as early adopters of VR and AR solutions. As
such, there is a high degree of variance on the Company’s source of revenues while customers are on-boarded and the Company’s
software product and solutions are integrated, measured and digested. A customer that may account for a higher concentration of revenue
in one period may not account for any revenue in subsequent periods. In some cases those customers could re-engage after they have evaluated
the Company’s solutions and may or may not be a source of future revenue.
As such, customers that make up a significant portion of revenues
in one period, often do not make up a significant portion in other periods. Given this dynamic, which has continued both prior and subsequent
to the reported periods, Glimpse expects this variability in Customer Concentration to continue until such point in time when the Company’s
revenue has reached larger scale, and with a larger portion of the Company’s revenues coming from Software Licenses/SaaS. Due to
the consistent oscillation in Customer Concentration from period-to-period, the Company does not view Customer Concentration as a material
issue at this time.

| | Typically,
customer contracts can be canceled at any time by the customer upon 30-90 day written notice (depending on the size of the
contract). In such an event, the customer would owe the Company unpaid amounts up until the point of cancelation. The Company
typically charges 25-50% of the contact value upfront and those are usually not refundable, mitigating some of the contract
cancellation risk. In aggregate, it is rare that a signed contract is canceled at any stage. |

| Management, page 52 | |
| 13. | You
disclose on page 52 that the leadership team of each subsidiary company, in addition to their equity ownership in the company,
also have an economic interest in their particular subsidiary company, typically ranging between 5-10% of the total net sale
proceeds of the subsidiary and includes a three-year vesting schedule. Please provide the information required by Item 401(c)
of Regulation S-K related to significant employees or tell us why this information is not required. Additionally, please discuss
the material terms of any agreements you have with these individuals. |
| | Response: |
| | The
Company does not believe that the identification of managers at the subsidiary level is required because it does not believe the managers
of its subsidiaries have the ability to materially contribute to the combined operations of the Glimpse parent company. Their contributions
are managerial at the subsidiary level, and they have no say on the policies of the Glimpse parent company. These manager employees have
the following attributes which have led us to the conclusion that they do not have to be identified: |

| (i) | the
subsidiary operations to which they are tasked to manage are still in earlier stages of development and, if needed, they can
be replaced by the Company’s executives or the General Managers (GMs) of other subsidiary companies or any subsidiary’s
internal personnel, until a suitable replacement is found, likely without a material negative impact on the longer term viability
of such subsidiary company, |
| --- | --- |
| (ii) | they
are all on shorter term 1-year employment contracts, |
| (iii) | their
cash compensation is relatively low relative to the market, |
| (iv) | there
is no contractual severance, and |
| (v) | they
all have 3-year vesting schedules on their economic interest (33% vesting after Year 1, and then monthly for the remaining
24 months). The GM’s economic interest in their subsidiary company is there to tie them more tightly into their particular
subsidiary and not just to Glimpse at large. In addition, such economic interest is completely contingent on a future sale
of their subsidiary company for a material amount (over $10,000,000). |

person should serve as a director in light of the registrant’s business and structure.

The
Amendment contains enhanced disclosure in applicable section.
Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions, page 59
15. We
note the disclosure on page F-16 that during the year ended June 30, 2020, the company raised $1.33 million by the issuance
of unsecured convertible promissory notes with a three-year term, primarily from existing company investors, including participation
by the company’s executives and independent members of the company’s board in the amount of $0.2 million. We also
note that Darklight Partners LLC and VRTech Consulting LLC each beneficially own over 14% of the company and are owned and
managed by Mr. Bentovim (your president, chief executive officer and Chairman) and Mr. Smith (your chief creative officer
and director), respectively. Please revise to provide the information required by Item 404 of Regulation S-K or tell us why
this information is not required.
Response:
The
Amendment contains enhanced disclosure in the applicable section.
Note 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Revenue Recognition, page F-8
16. In
order to better understand the nature of the services transferred in your arrangements, please clearly identify the nature of
the performance obligations specified in your contracts for each service line (i.e. Software Services and Software License
and Software- as-a-Service). For example, in regard to Software Services, describe in further detail your typical contractual
service obligations that are transferred in VR/AR software projects, solutions and consulting services. Also, clarify and
explain the contractual provisions in your Software Service arrangements that result in multiple performance obligations, including judgments made concerning the timing of satisfaction and in the allocation of the transaction price,
if any. Refer to ASC 606-10-50-12 and 606-10-50-17.
Response:
Timing
of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. The Company records a receivable when revenue
is recognized prior to invoicing, or deferred revenue when revenue is recognized subsequent to invoicing.
For
Software Services project contracts, the Company generally invoices customers after the project has been delivered and accepted
by the customer. Software Service project contracts typically consist of designing and programming software for the customer.
In most cases, there is only one performance obligation, and revenue is recognized upon completion, delivery and customer
acceptance. In certain instances one contract may include multiple distinct projects that can each be implemented and operated
independently of subsequent projects in the contract. In such cases, the Company accounts for these distinct projects as separate
performance obligations and recognizes revenue upon the completion of each project or obligation, its delivery and customer
acceptance.

Field: Page; Sequence: 8

| | For
Software Services consulting or retainer contracts, the Company generally invoices customers monthly at the beginning of each
month in advance for services to be performed in the following month. The sole performance obligation is satisfied when the
services are performed. Software Services consulting or retainer contracts typically consist of ongoing support for a customer’s
software or specified business practices. |
| --- | --- |
| | For
Software License or SaaS contracts, the Company generally invoices customers when the software has been delivered to and accepted
by the customer, which is also when the performance obligation is satisfied. For multi-period Software License or SaaS contracts,
the Company generally invoices customers annually at the beginning of each annual coverage period. Software License or SaaS contracts
consist of providing clients with software designed by the Company. For Software License or SaaS contracts, there are generally
no ongoing support obligations unless specified in the contract (becoming a Software Service.). |
| Consolidated Financial Statements for the six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 | |
| Note 13. Subsequent Events, page F-18 | |
| 17. | We
note you reduced the conversion price to $4.00 per share in order to encourage early conversion of the Convertible Promissory
Notes in January 2021. Please tell us if you considered the change to these notes to be a debt modification or debt extinguishment.
If you consider the change to be a modification, please tell us how you concluded the change made to the notes was a not substantially
different term under ASC 470-50-40-10. If you consider the change to be an extinguishment, please tell us the amount of gain
or loss recognized. Refer to ASC 470-50-40-2. |
| | Response: |
| | In
January 2021, $1,042,500 of the Convertible Note 1 was converted into common shares and therefore extinguished. As a result, a loss of
approximately $395,000 was recognized, reflecting the reduction of the Notes conversion price from $4.50/share to $4.00/share, the issuance
of Year 3 Interest (10%) paid in common stock (at $4.00/share instead of $4.50/share), and the accelerated amortization of related pre-paid
interest and original issue discount expenses. |

Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 Consolidated Balance Sheet, page F-23
18. We
note your financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2019 have been labeled as restated. Please tell us and disclose
whether the financial statements were restated due to an error correction and provide the required error correction disclosures.
Refer to ASC 250-10-50-7.
Response:
The
only change was related to how the Company accounts for Goodwill amortization as it transitioned to public company reporting (vs.
private), as detailed in the related Change in Accounting Principle. The change was not as a result of an error correction.
Note
1. Description of Business, page F-27
19. We
note your business is currently comprised of eight wholly-owned subsidiary companies, each targeting different industry segments.
Please clarify for us, and revise if necessary, whether you have reporting segments as defined under ASC 280. If so, please
provide the required disclosures under ASC 280-10-50.
Response:
The Company currently owns ten wholly-owned subsidiary companies,
although two are not currently operationally active. The Company aggregates all operations at the Glimpse parent level. There is one bank
account, only Glimpse has an EIN, all employment contracts are with Glimpse, all other vendor and customer contracts are with Glimpse,
all invoices go out from Glimpse, etc. As such, there is no discrete financial information for any of the subsidiary companies at this
stage in the Company’s life cycle. Since there is no discrete financial information available, the Company believes that segment
reporting is not required.
General
20. Please
supplementally provide us with copies of all written communications, as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, that
you, or anyone authorized to do so on your behalf, present to potential investors in reliance on Section 5(d) of the Securities
Act, whether or not they retain copies of the communications.
Response:
Neither
the Company nor the Underwriters used or intend to use any such written communications or materials.

Kindly address any comments or questions that you may have concerning this letter or the enclosed materials to me (tel.: (212) 930-9700).
