State of the Industry

Trends in Games-as-a-Service

Some say mobile is overhyped - but perhaps its not hyped enough! Think you know about the next generation of consoles? Want to find out who will be the winner of the console war? (Hint: it isn’t Microsoft Xbox, Sony PlayStation, or Nintendo Wii-U). Curious about the future of the industry and want to know where to place your bets next? These are all topics that our guest speaker, Atul Bagga - Senior Equity Research Analyst at Lazard Capital Markets, will be covering on at our next State of the Industry Talk!

Join us on Monday, January 28th at 6PM for a night of insightful discussion about the current state of our gaming industry and learn what the future holds for games!

As usual, the Yetis will be providing free drinks and Red Bull! And as always tasteful music throughout the networking time.
