I met Garage Stories' team back in 2019, when we were introduced by a colleagues as she was looking for a venue to organize a non profit event, Stories for the Future, to bring together creatives and technologists to explore and design what role should XR technologies (virtual and augmented reality) play in the future. The curation of every single aspect of the event was impeccable, and it was full of engaging surprises and unexpected performances that kept attendees engaged throughout the event.

 

I was also very drawn to the way they paced the methodology, giving clear instructions to follow to participants, but enabling enough space to creativity and spontaneity. The quality of the winning ideas was outstanding, they were actually presented at one of

the most renowned trade shows in the area: AWE expo.
