SUMMARY:OOO MeetUp for the Gaming Industry
DESCRIPTION:What are OOO Meetups? \nAt Frontier RTP, we are constantly growing and making connections. We developed OOO Meetups as a way of helping connect like-minded professionals, entrepreneurs, and industry insiders during our regular, weekly Out of Office “OOO” events.\n\nWith each meetup, we work with a co-host to facilitate the networking and educational session while we pour the drinks. \nOur hope is that the meetups will spark dialogue, start relationships, and make your happy hour meaningful. Did we mention there will be free craft beer from Fullsteam Brewery, wine selected by RTP Uncorked, and non-alcoholic options? \nAbout the Meetup\nWork in the gaming industry or interested to know more about it? This meetup, co-hosted by International Game Developers Association NC-Triangle Chapter, is for you! We’ll discuss the ever evolving role of games and game design principles in the tech and products we use everyday.\nGame Plan\n\n4:30 – 5:00 p.m. | Check In, Drinks & Networking\n\n5:00 – 5:45 p.m. | Educational Session in Classroom A\n5:45 – 6:30 p.m. | Drinks & Networking\n\nWhat You’ll Learn\nTopic: Building Readiness Before you Launch \nJoin us as Gabe shares lessons learned from successes and failures across six crowdfunding campaigns.
