Call for Submissions: #gamesUR US Summit 2018

15 Sep 2017

Summit Theme

The IGDA Game User SIG’s theme this year is “Building”! Join the community in exploring the foundations of Games User Research as well as new ways of looking at GUR in a variety of settings. We want to hear from everyone in the field, whether you’re working on console, PC, mobile games, in academia, or are just trying to get started and want to know more.

Come tell us about your tried and true methods, unique approaches, new ideas, theories, and lessons learned – all in support of real-world GUR applications at the IGDA #gamesUR Summit 2018.

Have something to share?

Get involved in building Games User Research in whatever way fits you best! Submit a proposal to make a presentation. Participate in a panel or a roundtable. Deliver a Back to Basics session focused on the foundations of working in and around Games User Research. A non-exhaustive list of illustrative session topics is provided below, as a guide to potential authors.

Please fill out this google form to submit your proposed presentation: http://gamesurconf.com/us/submit/

Deadline for submissions is 15 October 2017.
