During the Rotterdam Games Week, Dutch Games Association (DGA) will be organising DGA eXperts panel to discuss not only the trends, but also the future of our industry. The afternoon will start with a presentation by DGA on the Dutch games industry based on statistics provided by NVPI and Newzoo. For the eXperts panel itself we have invited experts from different divisions within the games industry to discuss the topics that affect us all. We will discuss the trends within the industry in areas such as serious games, VR, and eSports. After the panel there will be drinks together with EsportsX. We hope you will join in on the conversation.
Allow us to introduce our panel members!
