Sergiu Ardelan is CEO and co-founder of ARTIVIVE. His platform empowers artists to build the future of analog and digital art. His vision is to change how art is created and consumed by forming a global community of augmented reality artists that bring art to life.

He is on a mission to democratize augmented reality by simplifying the technical process so artists can do what they do best — create. An Austrian native, he developed the Artivive application from the ground up including product development, identifying artistic consumer need, and providing tailored specifications to take Artivive to market. The platform now has a global reach currently used by a network of 90,000+ artists and creatives.
