Our industry still largely gets a bad wrap, but our medium has the potential to be the most powerful in reaching the masses. As players become more socially conscious, we not only have to adapt, but have the opportunity to lead the way. We can help develop and support voices that stand for something. The same way books, music and film do: like the Orwells, Steinbecks, McQueens and Springsteens.
This event brings together people in our industry who are using gaming for public good; who are doing, or want to do, innovative things to harness the power of our medium and use games as a vehicle for change. Proceeds from this event will be donated to reforestation NGO- WeForest.
Be inspired, share ideas, and leave with practical takeaways for your first or next step. And of course enjoy food, drinks and mingling.
