Understanding the AIXR Steering Boards
AIXR Steering Boards (SB) are a critical component of our AIXR Technology Council framework, overseeing strategic discussions and decisions on emerging technologies.
Quick Facts:
Who: Composed of top executives from major tech companies (over $1 billion in revenue), including leaders like Vick Dobs Deck from Disney’s ILMxLab and Ryan Nadel, formerly with HoloLens.
What: Oversees technology-focused discussions, shapes the direction of AIXR, and makes strategic decisions based on input from Industry Councils (ICs).
When: Meets quarterly and engages with the community through special events.
Where: Conducts meetings online and hosts occasional in-person events.
Why: To provide high-level guidance, ensure broad industry representation, and support strategic decision-making based on insights from ICs.
Formation and Early Role
Founded in 2019, the SB initially focused on VR and AR, guiding AIXR's approach to emerging technologies and identifying industry barriers. Its role has evolved to include a broader focus on VR/AR, AI, and Web3.
Current Structure and Role
The SB is now structured to include distinct Technology Councils, each focusing on specific technologies (e.g., VR/AR, AI). Industry Councils (ICs) operate under these Technology Councils, focusing on sector-specific issues and providing insights that inform SB discussions. SB meetings are informed by IC feedback, and decisions made here guide AIXR’s broader strategy. The SB is not involved in day-to-day operations but plays a vital role in shaping overall direction and strategic partnerships.
Looking Forward
While specific plans for the board’s future are confidential, the group continues to adapt to the changing landscape of the industry. It is committed to facilitating significant impacts on the sector, shaping trends, and promoting innovation. By regularly reassessing its focus and expanding its scope to include new aspects of emerging technology, the board ensures that AIXR remains at the forefront of industry development.
