We're thrilled to announce the return of GamesBeat Next, hosted in San Francisco this October, where we will explore the theme of «Playing the Edge.» Apply to speak here and learn more about sponsorship opportunities here. At the event, we will also announce 25 top game startups as the 2024 Game Changers. Apply or nominate today!

I’m happy to announce a number of speakers and a new venue for our GamesBeat Next 2023 conference, which takes place in San Francisco on October 24-25.

Registration is available here and you can get a 40% discount off the ticket price with this code: GBSDEANNEWS. As you can see from the pictures, we found ourselves a new venue at the NTT Experience Center, a beautiful space in San Francisco across the street from the Moscone Center. NTT has graciously agreed to be the host sponsor of the event.

You can also apply to be a speaker or a moderator on this link or to be a sponsor here, though we are close to wrapping that up. Our theme for the event is “Playing the Edge,” which encapsulates the spirit of pushing boundaries, taking risks, and venturing into unexplored territories within the gaming world. This will be a live, in-person event, with very little virtual-only content.

It represents an invitation to embrace the thrill of being at gaming’s edge, the forefront where innovation and excitement converge. Last year, we had more than 500 people turn out for this event and we had some memorable talks like the fireside chat I did with Neal Stephenson, author of Snow Crash and chief instigator of the open metaverse vision that remains with us three decades later. The video is attached to this story.
