Jessica Manins is on a mission to make the virtual worlds more social, inclusive, and fun. She is the co-founder and co-CEO of the New Zealand-based virtual gaming studio Beyond. With her background in theatre and technology, Manins brings a unique perspective to making VR games. She cares deeply about the user experience, the "why" when building, and ensuring games are as accessible as possible.

Manins established the New Zealand VR/AR Association, co-founded an R&D lab for spatial computing innovators and was a Wellingtonian of The Year science and technology finalist for her VR therapy work.
