MCM London Comic Con and EGX organiser ReedPop has revealed that this year’s convention will see the return of the PopCultr Marketing Summit, a Creator Summit as well as an Investment Summit in partnership with Game Republic.
The Investment Summit, in partnership with Game Republic, offers game developers an opportunity to learn more about securing investment for their games and will feature a keynote session with Peter Moore, the former President of SEGA America, VP of Microsoft’s Xbox division and head of EA Sports, and Chris Dring, editor-in-chief of The Games Business (and former GamesIndustry.biz head).
Jamie Sefton MD of Game Republic said “It has been great to work with the ReedPop MCM/EGX team on another cracking event for the Autumn, and we are delighted that the industry legend Peter Moore will be joining us. The Investment Summit will enable game developers to not only learn about investment but to meet investors and publishers too. It is also my birthday on the day of the Investment Summit, so I will be demanding cake throughout the event. “
The summit will also include a GamesIndustry.biz panel on investment chaired by GameIndustry.Biz features editor Lewis Packwood. The panel will be made up of Curran Games Agency’s Cassia Curran, Transcend Fund’s Lirui Ding, Yogcast Games’ Simon Byron, and Team 17’s Meg Clarke.
More roundtables and panels will be revealed for the Investment Summit soon. Game studios can apply for FREE industry passes here and Game Republic members will be guaranteed access to the Investment Summit.
