Meanwhile, blockchain-powered marketplace Robot Cache will also be present giving us a look into how games will be sold in the future.

Meanwhile, Thomas Bidaux of Ico Partners will be providing an update into the everchanging crowdfunding market, while freelance contractor Christian Fonnesbech, who does work for Nordisk Film Games, is going to be sharing his top dos and donts for securing investment as a games studio.

If that wasn't enough, Auroch Digital boss Tomas Rawlings is going to be bringing us up to speed with The Steampocalypse - how Valve's marketplace has become a hostile place for studios and what they can do to survive in the current landscape.

And finally, Purewal and Partners' Peter Lewin is going to be on-stage giving developers practical tips of what to look out for when signing a contract with a publisher.
