Our Hollywood and Games panel — a long-awaited love affair — will take place on May 21 at the GamesBeat Summit 2024 event in Los Angeles. (You can get 25% discount with this code: gbs24dean25).
The panel is entitled, Hollywood and Games: A Long Awaited Love Affair. The speakers include Derek Douglas (head of video games at CAA and investor at Connect Ventures), Maureen Fan (CEO of Baobab Studios), Josh Yguado (CEO of Jam City), and moderator Peter Levin (managing director of Griffin Gaming Partners).

It makes sense, considering Hollywood has a risk aversion these days — but games have a built-in audience and the franchises have not yet been over-mined, like comics.
