Background:

The worldwide gaming market will continue to grow this year with China accounting for the biggest percentage of online PC game and mobile games sectors.  It is estimated that there are 120 million online PC gamers and 160 million gamers in China.  The annual market growth rate is more than 30%.

As a media sponsor, ChinaSF was involved in Shanghai Media Group's international CCG (Cartoon, Comic and Gaming) Expo in July, 2012 which received 400,000 visitors and achieved USD700 million in deal revenues.

ChinaSF is a platform that connects business resources between China and the Unites States.  We would like to help local game developers learn about this booming market.

Following presentations, there will be a panel discussion covering the topic of "Accessing China's Gaming Market".  The discussion will cover business and partnership strategies, how to attract investment from China, and IP protection.
