Understanding Distribution in the Video Game Business

It’s a known fact that the games biz continues to explode and grow exponentially. This panel will prepare you with the landscape, terms and basic information you need to know so you can evaluate if your content is ‘game worthy’. You’ll learn about royalties, distribution, how to attract talent, how to avoid rejection and who-does-what on the team. You’ll also learn that there is life beyond PlayStation and how games on other platforms are making money. And you’ll hear from the experts why women are a huge ‘growth area’ and how the intersection of games, film and TV is creating new revenue opportunities that never existed before.
