Gabo Arora is a world renowned, multi-award winning immersive artist, professor, entrepreneur and former United Nations diplomat who works with the most cutting-edge emerging technologies, including virtual and augmented reality, to tell some of the most important stories of our time.
Widely recognized as a pioneer of new documentary formats, his work, which is part of the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, has been described by the BBC and LA Times, amongst many others, as “game changing,” “powerful, moving and without precedent,” and “transcending all the typical barriers of rectangular cinema.” He has designed and led campaigns of significant measurable impact, raising millions of dollars for the United Nations, UNICEF, USC Shoah foundation and the Nobel Peace Prize committee. He has had the honor of being the UN’s first-ever Creative Director; a Davos World Economic Forum Arts and Culture Leader; a member of the Council on Foreign Relations; and is the Founding Director of a new lab and academic department -- the first of its kind -- dedicated to Immersive Storytelling and Emerging Technologies (ISET) at Johns Hopkins University. He is also the CEO and Founder of Lightshed.io, a creative tech and production studio.
A native New Yorker, Arora's work has been nominated for an Emmy, awarded a Cannes Lions and a Sheffield Doc/Fest award for best documentary, and has been featured in the New Yorker, the British Film Institute's Sight and Sound magazine, Fast Company and the New York Times, among others.
