To all the members, China Game Publishers Association On Giving Full Support to "China Game Developers Conference 2009"
In the recent years, the General Administration of Press and Publication of P.R. China, taking serving the industry as its objective, has put industrial development as its priority and strongly supported the development of domestic game companies. It has not only encouraged the enterprises to adopt the management strategy of "getting bigger and stronger", but also established for them four platforms to better facilitate their growth, including ChinaJoy, Census of China Game Industry, China Game Industry Annual Conference and China Game Developers Conference (CGDC). All of these efforts have played an important role in strengthening the core competence of the domestic game industry and enhancing its sustainable development and prosperity. With the industry taking shape and getting ready for further upgrade, the Technology and Digital Publication Department of the General Administration of Press and Publication of P.R. China has decided to further promote the name and standing of CGDC and make better use of it to accelerate game R&D in China. Therefore, the host of CGDC -- China Game Publishers Association -- was urged to get fully prepared for the coming conference.
Under the aforesaid instruction from the government authorities, the China Game Publishers Association made up the Preparation Plan for the Second China Game Developers Conference. The 2nd CGDC, which will be held along with ChinaJoy on July 24 to 26, 2009 in Shanghai International Convention Center, is an effort to enhance the R&D capabilities of Chinese game companies by facilitating international exchange and cooperation. Game developers will have a precious opportunity to hear the renowned experts and professionals from home and abroad to share with them their experience, technological innovations and application know-how in game design, programming, audio, visual effect, etc. Thus, in order to have a successful conference, will all the member companies and organizations please assist us in the following:
1. Member companies and organizations should pay special attention and give full support to CGDC. This conference is the one and only platform serving the domestic game R&D that is jointly built by the government authorities and industrial association of publication. As a highly international and professional conference, it furnishes the industry a golden opportunity to exchange experience with and learn from top-notch developers. Member companies and organizations please pay special attention to this conference and participate actively in its events. 2. Member companies and organizations should not support similar events held in the country. After comprehensive coordination, China Game Publishers Association has managed to move the conference to ChinaJoy. With the 2nd CGDC held during ChinaJoy, participants will not only be able to cut their expenses but the largest possible number of game developing companies and its developers will have access to this event. This is also an effort to ensure that CGDC is the only conference of its kind and that its authoritativeness and goals will be achieved. Therefore, the China Game Publishers Association would like to call on all member companies and organizations to refrain their support to any similar domestic event so that resources will be concentrated on this conference. 3.
