For a long time, Meta Horizon Worlds was a kind of Shangi-La, a fabulous utopian realm that seemed out of reach for most people. While Marc Zuckberg’s vision of the Metaverse had been open to people in the US for some time in a beta version, many curious metanauts elsewhere were left out.
Only recently has Horizon Worlds been made available in Central European countries, inviting people to become part of this community.
Paige Dansinger is not only one of the first settlers of Horizon Worlds, but has also played an important role in shaping the culture from the very beginning.
In her session, she will not only introduce us to the special features of Horizon Worlds, but also take us on a journey of discovery into this sphere that is still unknown territory for many of us.
Paige Dansinger creates participatory, community-empowering solutions for sustainable smart cities, museums, and communities using XR immersive technologies and spatial computing. Founder of Better World Museum, Horizon Art Museum, and Women in Horizon, she serves as a Global Ambassador for the VR/AR Association (VRARA) and is a member of the XR Women Leadership Committee. Paige is recognized among the Top 25 Women in the Metaverse, Top 100 Global Women of the Future, and Top 115 Community-Builders via Meta’s Inaugural Community Leadership Program.
The Africa VR Campus and Center is a grassroots tech organization dedicated to empowering the underprivileged and nurturing talent in remote areas, fostering Metaverse growth across Africa.

In this session, Paul shares his story and offers insights into Africa’s role in the future of immersive tech and beyond. You will also have the opportunity to meet some of his students and talk about the learner’s perspective.
