Games Industry Conference (GIC) 2026 is one of Europe’s largest and most influential professional gatherings for game developers, publishers, and technology partners. The June edition takes place in Katowice and focuses heavily on B2B networking, structured business meetings, and deep‑dive expert talks across multiple parallel tracks. The October edition in Poznań runs alongside the massive Poznań Game Arena, creating a combined ecosystem where industry professionals and tens of thousands of players converge. Together, the two events highlight the strength of Poland’s rapidly expanding game‑development sector, home to more than 500 studios and a thriving ecosystem of service providers.

Both editions of GIC 2026 emphasize high‑quality educational content, with talks rigorously reviewed and marked by difficulty level to ensure meaningful insights for developers at every stage. The conference also hosts Geek Careers, the largest game‑industry job expo in Europe, connecting studios with talent from across the region. With more than 300 speakers, extensive B2B meeting zones, and a strong international presence, GIC 2026 serves as a central hub for learning, hiring, and building long‑term partnerships within the European and global games industry.
