With an audience of more than 2.8 billion players, gaming is shifting the way companies connect with their consumers. Brands have been looking to gaming to expand beyond traditional advertising and further their digital footprint, create immersive experiences, unlock revenue, and reach a new demographic. In this session, leaders across technology, gaming, sports, and entertainment will explore opportunities for brands to engage consumers through gaming.
