Content is the foundation of the XR industry. Without engaging content for users to experience, enjoy and learn from, AR/VR hardware and technology would likely serve little purpose. This is why those making the content are key!
AWE offers a fantastic community and series of global events where artists and creators can gather to get inspired. Whether it is at one of AWE’s in-person conferences, or online through the awe.live portal, there is plenty of opportunity for creators to learn how to create incredible AR/VR experiences and discover a new virtual or augmented reality career. Get first-hand advice on how to best use the latest platforms and SDKs from the likes of Adobe, Epic Games, Google, Meta, Microsoft, Snap, Unity and more
