Play Behind the Scenes: How the Game Industry Actually Works

The gaming industry is one of the fastest-growing sectors in entertainment technology, with increasing investment flowing into the Asia-Pacific region. You may have cleared countless stages and pulled plenty of SSRs, but you have probably never had the chance to explore the commercial opportunities behind the games you play.  Play Behind the Scene lifts the curtain on how the game industry really works: how a studio plans its IP and product lineup, decides which titles to build, and allocates resources to claim its place in the global market. Led by GameWorks, the forum brings together Japan’s leading corporate venture fund Bandai Namco 021Fund and Vietnamese gaming unicorn VNG in conversation. They’ll share how they think about the future of games from the angles of new IP, next-generation entertainment, and technology, giving you a much clearer picture of how game companies operate and collaborate internationally.
