About

WN Growth Summit is a business event for game industry leaders — focused on one question: where does growth come from now?

The program now moves through four directions:

  • Content as a growth driver — from games to content‑driven products and communities.
  • Licensing entertainment IP as a growth strategy — across films, series, and game franchises, and how to structure those deals for real impact.
  • What really drives growth today — the latest in UA, product‑led growth, alternative distribution, and other practical levers.
  • Strategy in times of uncertainty — how leaders rethink focus, teams, and markets when the old playbooks no longer work.

Format

  • Discussion-led, small-group sessions
  • Practical, experience-based conversations
  • A full day in a comfortable indoor setting by the sea, with lunch and coffee
