White Nights Results: Mobile Games Conference

In mid-June, we held the first and only international conference in Russia devoted to games on mobile platforms - White Nights: Mobile Games Conference . And, frankly, the results even exceeded our expectations. Nearly 400 developers and publishers, speakers from Google, Microsoft, Flurry Analytics, Big Fish, Mail.ru, Alawar, i-Free and not only gathered in St. Petersburg on White Nights (links to video recordings of presentations inside) . Even Rovio we made on Skype! :) Plus, in the opinion of many participants, not a single conference has given so many useful business contacts for a long time. Thank you very much to everyone who came to us!

Why did we decide to gather developers and publishers of mobile games? Nevosoft has been in the gaming market for 10 years, we are developing along with the industry and, as they say, “in the subject” of what is happening. We are confident that now is a unique moment when the developers of Russia and exUSSR have excellent chances to achieve outstanding results. In a market where you can still “sweep through” without a multi-million dollar budget. In a market where creativity and game design are still not empty words.

By the way, the “only lecture” format justified itself: many said thank you for finally being able to listen to the speakers, because usually there is no time left for that. And the program was good - without the traditional “water” and advertising reports (well, almost). However, the next time we plan to do something like a business lounge with tables to make it easier to find each other.

Separately, I want to note the atmosphere of the event - all were very positive. Maybe because the reports on the white nights began only at 16 o'clock, and everyone had time to sleep, even after the official party on the ship;)
