Presentation:
"The Video Game Business – it’s not a game anymore"
by David Vronay,
Research Manager of the Center for Interaction Design in Microsoft Research
Asia
Many
game companies are started by enthusiastic individuals who believe that their
great ideas and willingness to work hard will ensure their success. However, a game company is just another
business, subject to all of the financial, marketing, and managerial
requirements of any other business. In
this talk, Mr. Vronay will discuss the evolution of the video game business
from its earliest hobbyist days to its current incarnation as a massive
international entertainment oligopoly.
The talk will be from the perspective of someone who has worked
everywhere from his friend’s living room to the world’s largest
software company, and will provide practical advice for those who hope to enter
this dynamic market.
NOTE: There is only room for 60 people – so it
will be “first come first serve”
