AWE Nite DC: XR Goes to the Capitol!

Details

AWE is now in Washington DC! The nation’s capital is more than just where bills become laws – it’s increasingly become a hub for technology and innovation. That’s why we have established an AWE Nite group here – to connect those that are building amazing Spatial Computing technologies, with those who are a part of the diverse organizations and industries represented throughout the DMV.

In this inaugural AWE Nite event, hosted by Cathy Hackl and Jake Steinerman, we’ll take a high-level look at the state of XR in DC today, and some really interesting examples of spatial computing in action on Capitol Hill. We hope you will join us! RSVP at the link below.

Speakers:
Liz Hyman - President & CEO, XR Association
Leads the XR Association, a non-profit industry trade association, representing the broad ecosystem of companies in the virtual, augmented and mixed reality industry (including immersive technologies yet to be invented).

John Burwell - Global Lead, Varjo
Supports Varjo's efforts to create highly immersive solutions for the simulation and training community.

Jimmy Vainstein - Sr. Program Manager, The World Bank
