"DreamHack is incredible; its support of indie games from across the board is growing continuously. We can put our game in front of real game developers and get a live reaction, and we can feel the warmth of the community." Den of Geek correspondent Sam Stone was at DreamHack Dallas, a celebration of all things game from tabletop to esports! One of our favorite things about DreamHack is how they uplift the indie game scene. Sam spoke with the developers of three upcoming games, and we look forward to seeing these projects come to total fruition. Got an indie game to bring to the world?

Esports isn’t traditional sports, and that’s a good thing The most popular, widely played esports games aren’t those that mimic sports played offline, writes Franck Guignery, SVP, Middle East and Africa. #esports #gaming #sport

Cannes key takeaways: the power of diversity. Giulia Z., Commercial Partnerships Director, shares her takeaways with The Drum "There’s no argument that Cannes Lions, and the events that surround it, are brilliant, year on year. But something I’ve often noticed is that they’re also extremely US-centric across most of the narratives shared.I would love for more European, African and Asian companies, sports rights holders, and marketers to find their own space in these festivals. To share different cultural perspectives, ways of working, and what works across different geographies. Because it’s vital that we don’t always look at our industry through a singular lens. Diversity is powerful, we all know that." https://lnkd.in/e2qMcbpv
