Microsoft, EA and Ubisoft are just some of the firms signed up to speak at this year's Game Connection Europe, bound for Paris later in October.

Along with Oculus and Epic Games, speakers from said firms will take to the stage to discuss everything from business and game design to marketing, technology, finance and the arts.

Game Connection Europe will be held in the French capital between 29-31 October, with talks complimented by what organisers claim will be a “huge exhibition and networking area.”

Together as one

“Sessions and panels are open to all visitors of Game Connection Europe, while Master Classes consist of seven hours of professional training and are subject to a separate entry pass,” detailed organisers in a statement.

“As of today, registered attendees can schedule their business meetings via the official meeting application.”

This year's shebang will also feature a dedicated Unity day on 29 October, with a full track of panels and a master class focusing on intelligent and interactive 2D and 3D experiences.
