A look at what is on the horizon for the Australian games industry with the move into next generation consol development, the rise of casual gaming using mobile technologies and massively multiplayer online games.
Key players from the industry will give their insights into what the industry faces over the next few years as well as what it is currently doing to ramp up for the future.
This is a great opportunity for current industry people and those wanting to get into the industry to see what is happening in the near future.
This forum is expected to be very popular and as seating is limited it would be wise to book early to avoid disappointment!

Cool, who is currently speaking?
We currently have:
Graham Edelsten - Auran
Steve Middleton - THQ
Darren BAker - Wildfire Studios

and others to be announced....
It will be a discussion panel so plenty or chances to ask questions.
Bryn, it's probably worth mentioning that there wasn't any actual link to an online registration page in the original email that was sent out for this presentation. I've had to look it up on the AIMIA website for more details, and found the page with a link to registeration which doesn't actually work. So those who are looking into registering online for this presentation are out of luck at this moment.
The links fixed - I cant put it here as comment robot wont let me - go to the AIMIA site and then to events - it should all work now!
I'll put the link up in the news item.
Mathew Ford from the IGDA will also be speaking. Wine/beer and nibbles to follow the discussion. Anybody whop joins AIMIA on the day gets in free!
The panelists have been finalised.
