From gaming industry vets Guy Blomberg (Games Industry Gathering), Krysti Pryde (PlayNYC), and Amit Hossain (IGDA NYC) and with support from NYC Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment, the inaugural event is intended to kick off an annual citywide celebration of all things gaming and aims to “provide valuable business opportunities and entertainment for the global games sector to connect with the local industry and community.”
