About GDC - Game Developers Conference and Expo
The Game Developers Conference (GDC) brings the game development community together to exchange ideas and shape the future of the industry across five days of education, inspiration, and networking. Attendees include programmers, artists, producers, game designers, audio professionals, and business leaders.
This market-defining conference features a comprehensive selection of lectures, panels, and roundtable discussions, while the GDC Expo showcases the latest game development tools and services from leading technology companies such as Amazon, Epic, Google, Intel, Nvidia, Oculus, and Sony. GDC attendees can also take a break from all of the learning to relax and meet new people in dedicated community spaces, themed areas for playable indie games, retro games, alternative controllers, and more.
