“Games for Health [Canada] will be of interest to health care practitioners, planners, stakeholders, researchers, educators & service providers. This inaugural Summit will profile exciting innovations and best practices that use eGame technologies in training, diagnosis, and treatment of health care issues. Be inspired by how you might use new technologies to enhance your own practice!”

“Traditionally the games development industry has been dominated by young, white, middle class males. The Women In Games conferences battle to combat this… The conference welcomes participation from women and men from a variety of backgrounds - arts, humanities, social sciences, exact sciences and computing, both academics and industry professionals, to explore the issues that open up the whole game development process.” This conference was cancelled due to low delegate attendance and was instead held as a one day event at the Develop Conference in Brighton.
