​Panel 1: How Publishers See Game Discovery

​- Speakers: Simon Carless (Founder, GameDiscoverCo), Jeff Legaspi (Director of Marketing, Fictions), and more.
- Summary: Exploring how publishers are approaching marketing, community, and growth differently. We’ll dig into what’s changed from the traditional publisher model, how smaller teams are scaling smarter (not louder), and what studios should look for - or build themselves - in today’s publishing landscape.

​Panel 2: The Roast: Multi-Game Marketing

​- Speakers: Eric Wood (VP of Publishing, Scopely), Thomas Ko (Head of Publishing, KRAFTON) and Ernie Le (VP of Games, FirstLook).
- Summary: A candid, practical discussion on what studios are learning while marketing multiple titles (spoiler: not everything works).
