Update August 3rd 2014

Less than one week until Full Indie Summit!

The schedule is now available (http://www.fullindiesummit.com/sched): we will kick things off at 9:30AM on Saturday while the doors of the venue will open at 8:30AM. As a reminder, the Summit will be held at the Stanley Theater (http://bit.ly/1zLrYR0) on the corner of Granville and West 11th Avenue.

A few important reminders:

• Please, do not forget your ticket!
• Also please do not discard the ticket - it will be required to re-enter the venue throughout the weekend.
• Light snacks and beverages will be available at the venue, but cannot be brought to the seating area: they must be consumed in the lobby.
• The same applies to drinks from the outside: you won't be able to bring a coffee in the seating area, even if you need the caffeine to survive the early start.
  We are looking forward to see you this weekend!

Update July 29th 2014:

Less than two weeks until Full Indie Summit, but we still have big news updates for you! First, Valve will be joining us: presenters Aaron Leiby and Chet Faliszek will give a talk on Virtual Reality, followed by what will prove to be a fascinating Q&A session.

After a gruelling day talking about games, you are invited to relax- join East Side Games (@eastsidegames @ESGindiepower) and A Thinking Ape (@athinkingape) for their After Party at 5:30 p.m. You will need a separate ticket for this event, so please reserve your spot at the following address: http://bit.ly/1t9RZbM.

The Full Indie Summit 2014 is coming up and we are excited to announce that PlayStation, Unity Technologies, Indie Fund and Vlambeer will be among the great line up of speakers presenting at the event.

Join 600 other indies on August 9th and 10th for two days of inspiring presentations, parties and networking.

Last year’s sold out conference offered great opportunities for attendees: several games went on to achieve great critical and commercial success, including making their way onto PlayStation and being featured in press conferences and at E3. We hope to see even more success stories this year, with PlayStation, Unity Technologies, and more (to be announced) available during the event to meet with you.

Finally, continuing the tradition of last year, there will also be giveaways, including a chance to win a Unity3D Pro license!

Details on some of the Summit talks coming soon! In the meantime, visit the site for additional information: www.fullindiesummit.com, including the entire list of speakers announced so far.
