Nexon said on the 12th that it will recruit presenters for Korea's largest game knowledge-sharing event, the Nexon Developers Conference (NDC26), through Mar. 4.
NDC is a leading conference in the game industry that began in 2007, serving as a venue to share technology trends and development and operations know-how. At last year's event, which returned offline for the first time in six years, more than 7,600 people visited the venue over three days, and the cumulative number of online live-stream views reached 58,500.
This year's NDC26 will be held for three days from June 16 at Nexon's headquarters in Pangyo, Gyeonggi Province, and nearby locations. The recruitment fields are nine tracks: ◇ artificial intelligence ◇ game design ◇ programming ◇ visual art & sound ◇ production & operations ◇ business & marketing ◇ data ◇ Blockchain ◇ career. In particular, reflecting the trend of expanding demand for AI technology across the industry, the conference will strengthen sessions that cover AI use cases and know-how.
Presenter applications will be accepted on the official NDC26 website from Feb. 12 to Mar. 4. Anyone who wants to share knowledge and experience related to game development can apply, and the final presenters will be selected after review by an advisory committee.
Selected presenters will receive one-on-one speaking coaching, along with an invitation, a speaker pass, a souvenir, and a modest speaking fee.
Nexon plans to finalize the list of presenters in late March and begin advance registration for general visitors starting in May.
