The Journey of a Tech Visionary
Steven Bandola's journey into technology began over 21 years ago, coding bots for Runescape—his first taste of how computers could create magic with the right commands. This early fascination evolved into a lifelong passion for pushing technological boundaries and creating immersive experiences.
As Co-CEO and founder of TokenVR, Steven leads our pioneering B2B virtual reality company that brings immersive technology directly to corporate clients, event, and public venues through location popups. Under his leadership, TokenVR is becoming synonymous with high-impact VR solutions for corporate events, team building, and specialized training programs.
Entrepreneurial Spirit
Steven's entrepreneurial journey includes co-founding VRKADE in 2016, which achieved an impressive 97% customer satisfaction rating. After a successful exit from VRKADE, Steven's innovative spirit led him to:
- Teach Web Development at a college in Calgary, Alberta
- Contribute to a bitcoin wallet that came pre-installed on 20 million Samsung Galaxy S10 devices
- Redesign his homemade electric longboard (which he admits is "extra dangerous now")
Technical Expertise
With extensive experience as a Lead Product Engineer at Outforce and Software Engineer at Streetscape Technologies, Steven brings exceptional technical knowledge to TokenVR. During covid, he created a multiplayer virtual movie theater that allowed his friends and family to meet and watch videos together in VR. Steven is committed to bridging the gap between cutting-edge VR technology and practical business applications.

At TokenVR, Steven focuses on:
- Driving strategic vision for innovative VR solutions

Beyond Technology
