James Jensen
Chief Technology Officer
James Jensen is an entrepreneur committed to working with leading-edge technology and eager to solve problems surrounding how we interact and engage with each other in physical and virtual worlds. He is the previous creator and co-founder of the world-renowned virtual reality company The VOID, the critically acclaimed immersive entertainment company creating ground-breaking virtual reality experiences within physical sets in hundreds of locations across the globe, including New York, Downtown Disney in LA, Dubai, London and locations throughout Europe.
Within the last 25 years, James founded and managed several technology companies in video streaming, social networks, mobile games, and creative services. He has partnered with Disney, Sony Entertainment, FOX, MGM, Intel, Microsoft, SyFy, Dreamworks, and MTV through those ventures, and even created his own CG animation company, Sandman.
James is now launching a new form of virtual reality, called hyper reality, in the form of the multi-sensory entertainment company JUMP. JUMP will allow people to come as close to jumping and flying in a wingsuit as the real thing, but without all of the risk. In 2010, he designed and built BandCrashers, one of the first social, web-based, multi-streaming HD video platforms to bring the live concert experience of numerous headliner artists to millions.
