Anna Kozlova, Room 8 Group CEO

XDS aims to maintain a balanced ratio of 50/50 buyers to sellers that meet each year to contribute to the advancement of the game industry through networking, sharing best practices, and delivering high-caliber educational programs. Last year’s sold-out event boasted over 750 attendees from more than 45 countries, 14,400+ B2B meetings, daily networking opportunities, and special events, attracting over 40 world-class sponsors. This year is on track to once again be a sold-out event.

We are thrilled by the overwhelming interest in XDS as we return for our 11th annual edition in Vancouver. And we simply could not deliver the incredible attendee experience that we do without the generous support of key sponsors like Room 8 Group. Here’s to another successful year of XDS!
