Next up is a session with Dynamo PR’s Heather Delaney, a specialist in PR and communication for a raft of successful crowdfunding campaigns, including 3Doodler 2.0 and the Ticwatch.
The final session is with Cartamundi’s Stijn Vankerckhoven, who will give delegates a live demo of the firm’s brand new rapid game prototyping tool.
