A new trans-ocean alliance for Game Connection! After teaming up with

GDC to organize its B2B event in America, Game Connection is proud to

announce that a new partnership has been set up with the organizers of Tokyo

Game Show to promote each other's events. Game Connection Asia will be at

inside Tokyo Game Show during the first two business days.

GAME CONNECTION @ TOKYO GAME SHOW: A NEW DIMENSION

Tokyo Game Show is one of the main events in the world for the video game

industry and unquestionably the main one in Asia. In addition to the domestic end-user

audience, Tokyo Game Show is turning more and more business and international every

year. For the first time this year the TGS will have two full-days for business - expo and

conferences and the business audience is expected to be the largest ever. Game

Connection and Tokyo Game Show have agreed to be partners for mutual promotion, and

Game Connection Asia will be present at Tokyo Game Show from 2007. The alliance

between Game Connection and Tokyo Game Show is going to reinforce the business and

international dimension of this event, allowing industrials to meet together in an ideal

environment.

FOCUS ON INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS

More than ever, Tokyo Game Show will be the place to be for all Japanese and

Asian companies and Western companies willing to do business together. Game

Connection @ Tokyo Game Show 2007 will take place in a quiet hall in Tokyo Game Show

and will be held during the two business days of the event. Attendees are expected to

come from all over the world with an increased participation from Japanese and Asian

companies.

OPEN UP YOUR BUSINESS!

With changes in currency exchange rates, it's high time to look forward to Japan

and Asia in general. The current situation in Asian markets makes it the right time to

cross the gap of cultural differences and seize opportunities! Game Connection @ TGS

2007 will provide with the best offer of exhibitors and buyers from all over the world. Do

not miss it!

TIME HAS COME FOR DEVELOPERS, DISTRIBUTORS AND SERVICE PROVIDERS

TO SELL TO JAPAN

Game Connection @ Tokyo Game Show will help developers as well as publishers

and service providers to meet face-to-face decision-makers from the most meaningful

Asian companies - and their next partners are probably among them. While content

buyers are looking for original concepts to acquire, technology providers must be aware

that Japanese industry is now looking to efficient solutions to cut down on production

costs but not on quality!

 

We are convinced that such a partnership will help business between companies

from all over the world and that it will lead to a successful long-term collaboration » says

Pierre Carde, Managing Director of Connection Events (organizer of Game Connection).

By then, let's see you again in Tokyo, September 20-21!

Since space is limited and registrations will run until August 17, attendees can

already start to register online. Early bird rates are still available until June 30.
