2022 Speakers and Roundtable Leaders

D.I.C.E. Barcelona will feature world class speakers and focused roundtable, break-out sessions to facilitate networking opportunities that will enrich the attendee experience. 

Our outstanding speakers set the scene for the discussions and deals that are made around the summit. The networking functions allow you an opportunity to mingle with the speakers, delegates and companies that are driving growth in games today. 

Roundtable break-out sessions are intimate, moderated group discourses where attendees can discuss amongst peers a variety of topics important to the interactive entertainment industry.  The roundtables will take place in a room with multiple roundtables occurring simultaneously, seating 10 per table including the table leader. The objective is to trade ideas/thoughts with other engaged individuals with similar interests and questions. Year over year the roundtables are often described as a favorite amongst attendees because of the interesting conversations and the access it provides. 

2022 Theme: Better Together

This year’s D.I.C.E. theme will explore the idea, Better Together. Presented with formidable challenges to community worldwide, now more than ever we celebrate the human connections that drive us forward in business and in life. Communication and collaboration aided by next gen technology fuel a desire to grow and to share new experiences. D.I.C.E. has always been about the amazing people that build the art form of interactive entertainment. We couldn’t imagine not being able to connect with our amazing community to explore new ways to Design, Innovate, Communicate and Entertain.
