Networking and in-depth discussions
Each attendee has 24-hour access to the MeetToMatch platform that we’ve adopted for our first Beyond Games event, as well as our Discord server, which enables the opportunity to chat, network and connect with other professionals, speakers and sponsors.
One of our missions at Beyond Games is to bring together professionals from different verticals, for knowledge sharing and inspiring ideas.

These Guided Breakout Groups are:
- Monday 10 May: Where Games Meet the Metaverse
