About The Event
Why Are We Doing This?
From Roblox to Fortnite to Rec Room and beyond, Creators are now building full-fledged experiences, characters, and businesses inside digital platforms. Despite this cultural shift, there’s no dedicated space that celebrates, supports, and scales these Creators. WorldBuilder Summit fills that gap.
This is also about shaping the future of storytelling. As more media and entertainment IP enters these platforms, worldbuilders will be the ones breathing new life into beloved franchises and inventing entirely new ones. The event will explore how Creators integrate with existing IP and invent original stories inside living, interactive worlds.
