Mobile Game Conference


The 4th annual Mobile Game Conference will take place on July 13-14, 2006 in Seattle. Only a limited number of passes are available for working media, so if you don't want to lose a spot, head on over to Game Initiative's website to register.

  • Mitch Lasky, Senior, Vice President, EA Mobile

And I guess being in the American Idol era, there will also be a contest for game developers, indie game developers and publishers to present their nights-and-weekend designs in front of a panel of mobile games executives who can bring them to market. The winning presenters, will have 5 minutes to pitch their game to a select panel of judges like Kris Davis, Games Product Marketing Manger (Sprint), Andrew Stein, Sr. Product Manager (Cingular) and Paul Nakayama, Sr. Director, Content Programming (Amp'd Mobile).
