Description

Walt Disney Imagineering, the creative and design arm of the Walt Disney Company, has spent more than 70 years at the intersection of storytelling, design, and engineering, creating worlds across theme parks, cruise ships, resorts, and more. Now, as robotics and AI rapidly evolve, Imagineers are rethinking what’s possible in the physical world and what advanced technology should be used for. Join Walt Disney Imagineering president and chief creative officer Bruce Vaughn and his team for a rare look inside the Imagineering workshop to see how they turn ambitious ideas into reality and why speed and experimentation matter. There’ll also be a few surprises in this session, so you don’t want to miss it!
