The Game Developers Conference (GDC), the world’s largest gaming industry event, is set to take place this spring in San Francisco and Game On Manitoba will be there front and centre with a dynamic trade booth located in one of the best spots on the exhibit floor – between the Independent Game Developers competition booth and Nintendo, booth number 1131, see map.

 

“This year the GOM presence is going to be even bigger than last year. Not only are we going with a large group of video gaming companies plus the stakeholders, but the entire class of the Digital Multi-Media Technology Program from Red River College is also attending the conference,” says Edward Suzuki, Senior Project Manager, Destination Winnipeg.

 

Over 17,000 programmers, artists, producers, game designers, audio professionals, stakeholders and others involved in the development of interactive games are expected to attend the GDC to exchange ideas, network and shape the future of the industry.

 

While there, Game On Manitoba plans to showcase our strong gaming industry and promote our province as great place for start-ups and game development companies to expand their businesses. In addition, Complex Games will once again be developing and demonstrating a cool video game for a special event at GDC to promote video games made in Canada.
