At the end of February, this year’s Games Developers Conference \u2013 scheduled to take place this month, in March \u2013 was postponed<\/a> due to the coronavirus outbreak. A statement on the GDC website said the plan was to host the annual event later on in summer.<\/p>\n

Everything has now been sorted and in place of the original conference is a brand new three-day summer expo, taking place between 4th – 6th August, at the Moscone Center in San Francisco. Here’s the full rundown:<\/p>\n

\n

GDC Summer\u2019s conference program will consist of high-quality technical content, mixed with valuable roundtable discussions to foster conversation and connection.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

The event will host a new series of microtalks and fireside chats, as well as a dedicated space for comprehensive career development sessions covering topics such as how to pitch your game, effective communication strategies, how to land an investor\/publisher and business development strategies.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

<\/blockquote>\n
\n

As a celebration of the game development industry, GDC Summer 2020 will roll out a new community partnership program. Organizations will have the opportunity to apply for space onsite to host meetings and gatherings alongside the main event. Qualifying organizations could include SIG meetings, non-profit board meetings, local meet-ups, hosted \u201coffice hours\u201d by community professionals, portfolio review rooms, podcast recording and more.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

This program enables GDC as an organization to reach areas of the industry previously untapped due to space restrictions. Meanwhile, sponsorship packages are designed to be easy to execute, with a shorter-than-average runway compared to other industry events.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

GDC Summer will give the game development community a chance to come together in a way that hasn\u2019t currently been possible due to COVID-19. Safety remains the GDC organizers\u2019 paramount concern and the GDC team will continue to monitor the latest information from health officials to ensure a safe and compelling event for everyone at GDC Summer, GDC 2021 and beyond.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
