Everyone is talking about all things cryptocurrency recently, and terms like “Blockchain” and “NFTs” seem like buzzwords that are suddenly part of everyday language when we look towards the future of gaming. As we move forward towards a future in which building and exploring the Metaverse becomes the norm, we are looking to learn more about what this promising new frontier can mean for us as game makers.
Our upcoming in-person conference in February 2022 will cover all things Blockchain, NFTs, Metaverse and much more. We will be in London on February 14th to 15th and will bring together top-tier games industry professionals to discuss what these buzz terms are all about, how you can take advantage of this technology and the benefits it can bring you and your business. This is our most ambitious conference yet, bridging the gap between our online and in-person events through a hybrid model that will welcome thousands of in-person and virtual attendees. This will integrate the best aspects of our online conferences, the networking and ease of accessibility worldwide, as well as bring back the experience only meeting others in the flesh can provide for those who can make it to London.

With The New NFT Economies, we’re talking to experts in the field about what NFTs are, how you can incorporate them into your game monetization strategy and the benefits it can bring you. NFTs stands for non-fungible token and anything considered digital art such as drawings, GIFs, avatars, songs or other items can be considered an NFT. The significant and highly financially liable aspect of NFTs is the fact that you can buy and later resell ownership of these unique digital assets, with the ownership being stored on blockchain. If it sounds confusing, don’t stress — we have the best of the best sharing their experiences creating games with NFTs and how you can do so as well at PG Connects.
