Senior🎓
Top SchoolBen Morrow is a product-focused technologist and private investor with 15 years of experience building and managing engineering and product teams across AR, XR, cloud, and interactive media. He moved from hands-on backend and infrastructure roles into senior product leadership at Adobe, where he led XR product efforts and shaped developer-facing APIs and media pipelines. As a founder and early operator at Symmetry Labs and engineering lead at Lytro and Blippar, he combined creative hardware-driven installations and large-scale cloud processing to deliver ambitious, real-world experiences for major brands. Known for connecting emerging mediums and pragmatic engineering, he repeatedly turns experimental ideas into production systems and new product formats. Based in Redwood City, he pairs deep technical fluency with a founder's appetite for risk—now channeling that into angel investing and advisory work. An early adopter of plugin-less video and interactive broadcast techniques, he brings a rare blend of creative systems thinking and executional rigor.
