Ruch Projektantów Gier, a science circle at PUT, has been organizing a scientific conference related to creating games under the name of “Zjazd Twórców Gier” for four years. This was an event held together with Poznan Game Arena, a market fair about computer games.
More and more people are visiting the conference and therefore the changes were inevitable – the name has been changed to Game Industry Conference to make it easier for all foreign visitors to find information about the event.
Each year the conference is breaking new records, both in terms of the number of sessions, as well as in the number of guests. Last year it hosted 89 talks from 104 speakers, from whom 37 were from a foreign countries. There were over 3000 guests and more than 650 were professionally connected with computer game design. The conference also hosted 4 workshops with around 60 participants.
GIC will be held in 2015 from October 16 to October 18, as always together with Poznan Game Arena. The entrance to GIC is free for all participants of PGA. We would like to warmly welcome everyone interested in game design and encourage you to visit GIC this year!
If you are interested in helping with the organization of the conference, you are also kindly welcomed. The more people we will have to run the event the better and bigger it will be. If you are interested in taking part in the organization process, please send an e-mail to contact@gic.gd.
