At Disney, we are storytellers. We make the impossible, possible. The Walt Disney Company is a world-class leader in entertainment and technology. Walt’s vision was to continually discover new ways to engage and inspire audiences around the globe — a passion that continues to guide everything we do, from theme parks and streaming platforms to sports, media, and immersive experiences. At the heart of every endeavour is a commitment to creating and delivering unforgettable moments — and we are always seeking new ways to enhance these magical experiences.
