CALL FOR SPEAKERS - DIGITAL GAMES SUMMIT AT CES, JANUARY 7, 2004 LAS VEGAS
iHollywood Forum is pleased to announce that this year we are producing a one day summit at CES called the Digital Games Summit on Wednesday, January 7, 2004 in Las Vegas at the Riviera Hotel. We invite your company to submit a speaker for consideration.
We are producing this summit in association with the 2004 International CES (Consumer Electronics' Show) at their annual tradeshow Jan. 8-11, 2004 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Registration will begin in September at www.cesweb.org and tickets are $299 in advance; $499 at the door.
The International CES is the largest trade show of any kind in North America and the largest consumer technology tradeshow in the world, attracting more than 110,000 leaders from industries representing all facets of the global economy. CES features the latest developments in fast-growing product categories such as electronic gaming and broadband, digital imaging, wireless technology, as well as the latest advances in digital audio and video, mobile electronics and accessories.
iHollywood is now booking speaking spots for keynotes, panels, case studies and breakout sessions for the Digital Games Summit. You can view the agenda at www.iHollywoodForum.com. Over 400 game industry executives and press/analysts are expected to attend. Please submit speakers on the form on our site at ww.ihollywoodforum.com. While we will accept speaker submissions on an ongoing basis until the spots are filled, the priority deadline for consideration is Sept. 30.
Digital Games Summit will analyze trends and developments issues that affect the business of the electronic games industry: including marketing and distribution, industry outlook, developing new business, software development, publishing, licensing, entertainment, sports, music, new platforms, retail sales, and how to form strategic partnerships and alliances.
Whether the attendee is a consumer electronics company, retailer, publisher, marketer, developer, console manufacturer, or content creator, they need to know what's hot next year in the video game market. Who is winning the war between X-Box, Nintendo and Sony? What types of games will become the rage for next year? We explore new products and trends for video games, attracting attendees from leading game companies, entertainment, retailers and others. We address the emergence of new technologies such as broadband gaming, wireless and multi-player experiences; and discuss challenges, and opportunities facing game developers, publishers, and retailers in interactive entertainment.
