“gamescom asia’s Games Market Bootcamp will add even more excitement to the Singapore Media Festival (SMF) ecosystem, further entrenching Singapore as the regional hub for gaming developers, marketers, and strategists to gather, connect, and collaborate. I look forward to working with gamescom asia to grow Singapore’s vibrant media and gaming ecosystem, and providing a springboard towards bigger opportunities for gaming creatives in this region,” says Mr Howie Lau, Assistant Chief Executive, Media and Innovation, Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA).
The event will feature talks about both Singapore’s place in the regional Game Industry, as well as speakers from various key players such as Riot Games, Newzoo and Singapore Games Association (SGGA).
