GDC 2010 Game Developers Conference

March 9 - March 13, 2010 - Moscone Center, San Francisco, CA

The Game Developers Conference (GDC) is the world's largest professionals-only game industry event. Presented every spring in San Francisco, GDC attracts over 18,000 attendees, and is the primary forum where programmers, artists, producers, game designers, audio professionals, business decision-makers and others involved in the development of interactive games gather to exchange ideas. It is the essential forum for learning, inspiration, and networking for the creators of computer, console, handheld, mobile, and online games.

The Netherlands has earned a world-class reputation as a developmental hub for video game companies. Today, we're home to global gaming leaders including Team6 and Triumph Studios, game portals Spilgames® and Zylom®, console games Overlord®, Killzone® I and II, plus many more.
Our industry is experiencing explosive growth, especially in serious games and simulations. Dutch developers, educational and research institutes are collaborating on unprecedented innovations. We're also a key games test market for the larger part of Europe.

Invest Utrecht and The Netherlands Foreign Investment Agency (NFIA) can help you establish or expand operations in Europe, such as R&D, marketing, distribution and sales and find a (contract) development partner.
