So I've already mentioned the Global Game Jam, occurring January 29-31, in my previous post. Since then I've learned of two more exciting events coming quickly, so if you live in NC be sure to mark your calendar!
FEB 6: Carolina Games Summit
This one-day event, sponsored in part by The Escapist, takes place on Saturday, February 6th, at Wayne Community College in Goldsboro, NC. The day includes a number of lectures on programming, art, hiring processes, and more. Numerous game tournaments will take place throughout the day. Online registration is highly recommended; you may not be able to get a ticket just by showing up, so check out the website for ticket information.
APR 7-8: Triangle Game Conference
The second annual Triangle Game Conference takes place April 7-8 at the Raleigh Marriott City Center in Raleigh, NC. Dubbed the "leading East Coast event for developers and professionals working in the interactive entertainment and serious game industries," TGC is sure to be the area's top educational and networking event for those interested in the business of game development. This event was established by the Triangle Game Initiative to focus the Triangle area as a major hub of game development. If you live in the area, this is the event this year you don't want to miss!
Are you coming to one of these events??? Let me know in the comments! I'm more than happy to meet new people and look forward to making new friends. See you there!
