Navigating the Next Era of Gaming
The video game industry is at a pivotal moment. After years of rapid growth followed by economic challenges, the industry is now recalibrating for its next phase. GamesBeat Summit 2025 will explore how gaming companies can navigate this new era—one defined by technological innovation, shifting consumer behaviors, evolving business models, and a more competitive market than ever before.
With advancements in AI transforming game development, new monetization models emerging, and the industry increasingly converging with Hollywood and pop culture, leaders must rethink their strategies to stay ahead. At the same time, game discovery has become more challenging, requiring fresh approaches to marketing, community building, and partnerships.
This year’s summit will provide a platform for deep discussions on how gaming businesses can return to sustainable growth, foster innovation, and adapt to the shifting landscape. From dealmaking and investment trends to the next wave of immersive technologies, we’ll bring together executives, developers, and investors to chart the course for gaming’s future.
