Advisory Committee for gamescom Gets Down to Business

Joining forces to organise gamescom: With this slogan in mind the advisory committee for Europe's newest trade fair and event highlight for the interactive entertainment industry is getting down to business these days. In addition to member companies in BIU – including also Nintendo, Sega, Sony, EA and Microsoft – other representatives of the games industry, the Federal Association of Computer Games Developers (G.A.M.E) and the city of Cologne are meeting. As an advisory committee, they will actively and jointly address the future of the industry's leading trade fair. In addition to BIU members, the industry is also represented on the gamescom advisory committee by Tim Jollenbeck (Speed Link), Bernd Grannemann (Tivola Publishing) and Uwe Semtner (AMD). A member of the G.A.M.E association still to be named will also help to organise gamescom, the industry highlight. Frank Sliwka (Global Games Media), who is also organising the developer conference at gamescom, and Helmut Blomeke from the city of Cologne will round out the new committee.
