Keynote Speaker
JEREMY BAILENSON
We are beyond excited to welcome Dr. Jeremy Bailenson—the godfather of immersive experience research—as our keynote speaker. As the founding director of Stanford's iconic Virtual Human Interaction Lab (VHIL), Jeremy has been at the forefront of XR long before it was cool. His work didn't just study virtual reality — it helped define it. From training NFL players and astronauts in simulated environments to using VR to drive climate action and social empathy, his projects have changed the way the world thinks about immersive tech. His book, Experience on Demand, is a must-read in the field — hailed as the definitive guide to the psychology, ethics, and power of VR. With collaborations that span Meta to the UN, and a career dedicated to making XR more human, more ethical, and more impactful, there's no one better to launch this conversation into the future. If you're in XR, you've already been influenced by his work—whether you know it or not.
