LAUNCH: Future Gaming & Digital Conference puts out call for speakers

The lid has already been lifted on a number of names set to make an appearance at 2012's LAUNCH: Future Gaming & Digital Conference at Birmingham's Science Park, but organisers are looking for additional speakers.

The two day conference, which will play host to the likes of UKIE CEO Jo Twist, Mobile Pie's creative director Will Luton and Codemasters CEO Rob Cousens amongst others, features presentations focused around three key themes.

As previously detailed by business development manager at Birmingham Science Park, Matthew Hidderley, speakers should look to detail how to launch a career, launch a business or launch a technology.

Speaking out

"The annual LAUNCH conference builds on the Science Park's reputation for delivering the UK's most active support programme for the burgeoning digital games industry," added Hidderley back in April.

Speakers have until 31 May 2012 to submit their talks, with the event itself due to kick off on 13 November.

Leading the line will be a talk by Sega studio manager Sion Lenton about 'Developing Digital Studios & Culture fit for 20th Century'.

Those looking to deliver a keynote are advised to make the talk around 30 minutes in length, while standard talks come in at 20 minutes.

Tickets can also be picked up from the LAUNCH website, with tickets for both days starting at £249 before VAT.
