Solomon Rogers

Webit Speaker, CEO and Founder, REWIND

Sol founded REWIND, a VR and creative digital agency, in 2011 after growing demands for his professional work pulled him away from 15 years as a University Senior Lecturer in Digital Animation, Visual Effects & Emerging Technology. Sol was one of the youngest University Senior Lecturers in the UK, and helped write four new degrees, two masters and a PHD. 

Sol has grown REWIND into an industry award winning tribe of vibrant creative technologists and digital artists. Focused on harnessing immersive technologies to deliver groundbreaking VR, AR, Animation, DOOH, VFX and 360 degree video projects for some of the world's largest brands including Sony, BBC, Red Bull, Microsoft and Lexus.

In 2015 Lord Marlon awarded Sol the first “VR Technology & Innovation” award from UK Trade & Investment. REWIND was also nominated for 'UI Design in 2014' and '360 Video 2015' at the International VR Proto awards in LA.  

Pushing boundaries in virtual reality production and the fledgling VRX industry has gotten Sol regularly asked to speak at high profile international events, quoted in marketing trade publications, as well as appearing on TV and in national newspapers.
