Ethan Berg wants to help people build new worlds — professional-quality immersive, 3D spaces and experiences — without any coding skills. Berg (FOX ’20) is the CEO and co-founder of the startup Agora World Inc which offers a drag and drop no-code design space to create spaces for the metaverse.


Berg and Agora won Temple’s Idea Competition in 2021 as well as the Digital Innovation Award from the Digital Innovation Foundry (DIF), which included access to talent and resources. Today, Agora’s no-code platform accommodates users of all experience levels, from professional designers to those with minimal design background, making it an accessible solution for creating professional-quality 3D content and immersive social experiences,” Berg says. “What used to take a team, investment, and months to create now can be created quickly with no code.”  Berg quickly saw the value of DIF talent and resources, to “study this space and get a better understanding of where we’re headed and where we can go.”

" The XR community attracts so many interesting people. People that inspire me. Some of them are behavioral scientists, visionary creatives, technical geniuses. Others are hustlers. Young people who see an opportunity. An opportunity to build the future they want to live in with their friends and with their families. Ethan Berg brings some really incredible energy into the industry and I feel so much inspiration after our conversation. He caught the entrepreneur bug in college selling coffees to kids on campus, almost like a more thoughtful version of the classic lemonade stand ☕️ 💰 Then he tried VR and everything changed. Like me, he's not a coder or a design expert. He's a guy who see's problems and has a passion for building solutions. With Agora World he's building a no code solution for virtual world creation. They started by plugging into Shopify and providing fully immersive virtual reality shopping experiences, and since pivoted more into web based creation. Almost like the wix or squarespace of the metaverse. Really enjoyed learning more about his story and excited to share it with you." - Ricky Huock (MetaRick)
