Update Events announces DrinkUp for Northwest Game Developers

Update Events will hold DrinkUp, a plug and play social mixer for over 200 game industry professionals and business service providers on Thursday 9th October from 7pm onwards. The event, which will be held at Shooters Sports Bar in The Printworks, is an opportunity for North West game developers to meet and share their games in a relaxed environment, while also making valuable new business connections.

“The response to our debut event in MediaCityUK has been incredible” “hosting 400 attendees, 24 games and talks from industry names such as Microsoft and Unity was only possible due to the pro-active community” said managing director Andrew Bennison.

DrinkUp is the next major event in the North West to bring local game developers and service providers together, help forge valuable new connections and raise awareness for a rapidly growing creative scene. Throughout the night attendees will enjoy exclusive access to a private bar, free pool tables, a large projector and 12 TV’s which they can use at any time to showcase their projects. An open bar will be generously provided by sponsors and additional space can be made for over 350 people.

“After the resounding success of our debut event, the community has responded excitedly at the news of bigger and better opportunities.” said Update Events organiser Warren Burke.
