Disclosed are techniques for classifying and displaying electronic data sets relevant to a collaboration context using head mounted displays. Context information corresponding to a collaboration event is leveraged to identify participants for the collaboration event, where natural language processing is applied across the contents of electronic data sets presently available to the participants across their computer devices and network-based storage environments to collect electronic data sets relevant to the collaboration event. The collected data sets are then classified, from the perspective of individual participants, into classes including previously known and previously unknown data sets. The collected data sets are then displayed based on their classes to the participants wearing head mounted displays such that each participant views the same overall set of data sets through their head mounted display, but the data sets displayed within each class may differ between them.
