GDC 2012 welcomes 22,500 attendees, 17% increase from prior year
The 2012 Game Developers Conference broke an attendance record with 22,500 souls spending some amount of time inside San Francisco’s Moscone Center. The show saw a 17 percent increase in admissions from the previous year, and hosted over 300 exhibitors and sponsors, along with the 14th Annual IGF and the 12th Annual Game Developers Choice Awards.
“The continued growth of the conference is a great indicator of a healthy and exciting industry,” said GDC general manager Meggan Scavio. ” We are very proud to provide the forum for game makers to connect, dialogue, showcase, and learn in sessions, summits, expos and pavilions every year.”
GDC is already locked and loaded for a return trip to San Francisco from March 25-29, 2013, which means Joystiq already has reservations set for a return trip to the Sausage Factory in the Castro.Continue reading GDC 2012 welcomes 22,500 attendees, 17% increase from prior yearGDC 2012 welcomes 22,500 attendees, 17% increase from prior year originally appeared on Joystiq on Mon, 12 Mar 2012 19:00:00 EST.
