About

Building new worlds where technology augments human creativity. Portfolio at matthieulorrain.com Creative Technology leader | Business Insider’s 2024 AI Power List | Adweek AI Trailblazer 2025 For the past two decades, I’ve been at the frontier of digital storytelling, leading global teams and shaping creative platforms with some of the world’s most iconic brands and artists, including Donald Glover, Gorillaz, Darren Aronofsky, Star Wars, the NBA, Louis Vuitton, Space Invaders, Lego, and Nike. My focus is 0→1 innovation, working across product, design, and emerging media to invent the next-generation of content experiences. Whether building experimental formats or designing creative tools, I operate at the intersection of technology, art, and culture. My mission is to advance human creativity with sustainable technology, championing ideas that enrich our collective future. I try to deliver on that vision by building across disciplines (creative, strategy, design, tech) and growing teams that turn visionary ideas into reality.
