“One of the advantages I think we have in pursuing augmented reality is that we have this incredibly large community of people who are engaging with AR every day, which allows us to build technology, deploy it to millions and millions of people, and actually learn and iterate very quickly on what really matters.” – Snap Cofounder + CTO, Bobby Murphy, at MIT Tech Review’s EmTech Conference with Charlotte Jee and Lauren Cason
Born in Toronto, Canada in 2007, the personalized comic strip builder called Bitstrips made it possible for anyone to express ideas in a fun, creative storytelling format.

Today, more than 1 billion Snapchat avatars have been created, globally. Hear from the Bitmoji team about the evolution of avatars, how Bitmoji has become an integral part of the product pipeline for Snapchat, what their hopes and dreams are for the future of Bitmoji, and why avatars help represent you and everything that makes you unique!
