EMA Details Next GamePlan Summit

November 30, 2010

The Entertainment Merchants Association plans to hold its second annual GamePlan Summit September 13 - 15, 2011 at the Hyatt Regency in Chicago, Illinois. The event allows both game publishers and retailers to meet for one-on-one meetings and to discuss strategic issues both sectors face in the year ahead.

"EMA’s GamePlan Summit’s success is due to our exhibitors’ support and their continued effort to rise and meet the challenges of the growing demand for the compelling experience found in video gaming," said EMA President and CEO Bo Andersen. "EMA is pleased to offer a platform for strategic planning and growth for this dynamic segment of the entertainment industry."

Next year's event will feature a new Executive Forum about the future of the industry and a special charity event benefitting the EMA Scholarship Foundation.
