Sebastian Shaw

Sebastian Shaw (Seb) is the head of strategic development 3Di for enterprise offerings at Adobe and has spent nearly 20 years at Adobe in a customer and partner-facing capacity, developing creative strategy, partnerships and most recently, incubating new business initiatives. He joined Adobe in the infancy of InDesign when Print was the dominant form of creative expression. Since then, he has witnessed and been involved in the emergence of the web, mobile, cloud and AI as technologies that transform the way Adobe’s customers communicate through design. Most recently he has spearheaded strategic development for Adobe’s 3D & AR Business Unit, forging relationships and partnerships with industry-leading creative organizations that are embracing 3D and Immersive Technology as a new design discipline. Prior to his current role, Seb studied Communications and Media at the University of Washington and Liverpool University. This was after a decade spent traveling the world performing as a professional juggler in non-animal circuses, cabaret and street theater companies. Seb has a passion for design and the power of creative thinking to solve seemingly impenetrable problems. He lives in Seattle with his family, collects advertising memorabilia and tries to make time to chase his dog around the park.
