Game development conference congratulates Liverpool venue

Date: 26/11/2009

Corporate events management companies may be directed to Liverpool in future after the success of a major gathering for the game development community.

The fast-growing northern industry praised the Develop in Liverpool conference this month, with some of the biggest developers coming together for a day of learning and networking, sharing their latest ideas and concepts inside the Liverpool Arena and Conference Centre (ACC).

Companies who attended included Bizarre Creations, Sega, Eidos, Firebrand Games, Introversion, Nintendo, Codemasters, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe and Universal Music.

Michael Denny, the senior vice president of Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios, Europe, said: "It was a privilege to be invited to deliver the keynote at this inaugural Develop conference in Liverpool.

"The organisation, location and facilities all added up to a great event. It was a pleasure to take part and I hope to see it becoming a regular fixture in the industry's calendar."

People interested in hosting team building conferences at the ACC may be interested to know that the location has won CONFEX's coveted Best UK Venue award two years in a row.
