Everything you need to know to launch successfully
Presented by everyone YOU asked to be there
We asked over 250 game creators who have either launched or are actively working on launching their campaigns what resources would be most helpful to them in their journey Here’s what they said (and what you can expect at Summit)…
100% Free & 100% Live
Let’s be real, the worst part of any conference is attending a session thinking you’re going to learn so much, only to spend the entire time feeling like you’re being sold on a service.
We require all of our talks to be LIVE, have a Q&A, and have tangible takeaways - meaning you can apply these learnings whether you work with us, one of our speakers, or choose to blaze your own trail.
