EGX Partners with TikTok for 2023 Event

ReedPop has announced that TikTok will be the new headline partner for EGX. As part of this partnership, several well-known TikTok personalities, including Nick and Cam, Charlotte Murphy, and Callum Knight, will attend the London event from October 12th to October 15th. These influencers will visit various booths and create content for the TikTok platform. As the UK's largest consumer gaming expo, EGX will feature a significant presence from GamesIndustry.biz. On the show floor, GamesIndustry.biz will host the GI Academy area, which is designed for students and individuals interested in pursuing a career in the video game industry. This area will offer four days of talks, one-on-one meetings with game developers, university and developer booths, and the opportunity to 'graduate' from the GI Academy. The full lineup will be announced the following week. In addition to the GI Academy, GamesIndustry.biz will also host the Investment Summit, where major investors, platforms, and publishers will gather to invest in and sign independent games. All indie and publisher exhibitors at EGX are invited to attend the Investment Summit for free. An update on the next Investment Summit speakers will be announced later today. Tickets for the Investment Summit are now available and include a four-day pass to EGX. Other events scheduled to take place during EGX include a GI/EGX Party on Thursday night and various panels and talks hosted by the GamesIndustry.biz team. These will include a fireside chat with Remedy legend Sam Lake and a 25-year celebration of Banjo-Kazooie. Sea of Thieves will also return to its regular Saturday slot.
