"Android development is a red hot topic for the games industry: it recently overtook iOS and RIM for the number one position in market share among global mobile operating systems and 700,000 new Android-enabled devices are activated every day," said Andy Lane, event director of the F2P Summit.

"This session is an absolute must-attend for everyone involved in developing free-to-play games content."

A roundtable discussion will also be held at the event, titled My Worst Mistake, and headed by Edge's online editor, Alex Wiltshire.

He'll be joined by panelists including Relentless co-founder Andrew Eades and Papaya Mobile's Oscar Clark as they discuss the fortunate mistakes they have made in the past which inadvertently led to business success.
