"We are humbled by the reception of the event so far. And we want to thank all who have or will join this effort. Strengthening our industry through making deals to make great games jointly is fighting the good fight! I am glad that so many associations from all of over Europe and backgrounds are in too. Let's do this!", said Hendrik Lesser, President of EGDF
