Team
Ida XR Studio was founded by Leah Kurta and Victoria Eyton in 2022. Since then, many individuals have worked alongside us to develop the vision and work, and we include them as part of our team below. To ensure Ida represents the Immersive Tech community as broadly as possible, we have enlisted a Steering Committee to guide our programme and activities, that it made up of individuals from different backgrounds, genders and levels in their career.
