I appreciate the great job done and look forward to be a part of upcoming Game Connection events.” Svetlana Gorobets International Sales Director, Akella “It is our first participation and I must say Game Connection America@GDC09 has been the best thing ever for us. We made every single contact we wanted to make.

We had highly productive meetings, and Game Connection is the event we attend every year to get business done.” Dave Connely President & CEO, Coresoft “Game Connection is a very unique event in the video game industry.

We have been in the game industry for 15 years and this has just been great, with really good quality meetings” John Price Director of Technology, Manifest Games “Game Connection has been a great asset in finding new IP and development talent. The event is one of the most effective, efficient that I attend and I would highly recommend" Bob Loya Director of Developer Relations and Acquisitions, Activision Blizzard “The online meeting system makes me save a great amount of time.

I am going there at least once a year both to catch up with old partners and to discover new gems.” Art Producer, CCP Games “Professional, friendly and filled with true game enthusiasts, the Game Connection team makes it so much easier for us.
