#SupportUkraine Networking and Charity Reception @ gamescom 2023

On August 24, in honor of Ukraine's Independence Day, a special event unfolds at Wartesaal am Dom. This initiative signifies not only Ukraine's determination amidst trying times but also the robust support extended by the international community.

Brought to life by the collaborative efforts of the Ukrainian pavilion organizers:

• GDBAY: An international platform for game developers, renowned for their GDBAY.Network – a nexus where industry professionals converge to discuss business throughout the year. Their other notable project, Global Games Pitch, stands as the largest international online game pitching show, also facilitating year-long matchmaking.

• Games Gathering: One of Eastern Europe's prominent B2B conferences centered around game development and quality content creation. With a finger on the pulse of the gaming industry, Games Gathering Conference is a hub for insights on the latest trends.

• VG Entertainment (formerly Vostok Games): Established in 2012 by Ukrainian game development veterans, VG Entertainment transitioned from a compact developer team to a full-fledged studio. They are currently crafting an AAA shooter based on an all-new IP.

The evening promises networking opportunities with industry heavyweights, a charity auction to champion Ukrainian causes, and an assortment of refreshments. Beyond the celebration of a nation's independence, it stands as a testament to the unity and strength of the gaming community in its show of solidarity for Ukraine.
