Event Details

Join us for our panel on Social Games and Virtual Currency. We'll discuss the rise of social games, and how virtual goods are a key revenue model for games like Farmville, etc. We'll also discuss virtual currency: when nothing is really something. Real attention and cash are being spent on virtual currency, and real growth and cachet for businesses and brands are resulting from its use. We'll discuss in-game incentives for virtual goods, what works and doesn't, and how entertainment, gaming companies, and researchers are using virtual currency.

Our scheduled speakers include:
- David Stewart, Playdom, Senior Director of Product
- Yvonne Ip, Ignited, Media Supervisor, worked on Zynga - Universal Home Entertainment campaign for Public Enemies
- Grace Wu, AdKnowledge, Online Marketing Manager. AdKnowledge created programs for 20th Century Fox, including the Australian theatrical release of I Love you Beth Cooper and Tooth Fairy @adknowledge
- Jason Crilly, Appocalypse Interactive, Owner. Created movie/entertainment games for Share Your Secrets for Anchor Bay Films and Loyalty vs. Duty for Overture Films
