Facebook and Google will speak on global game partnerships at GamesBeat Summit

We’re excited to announce that we’ll have the game partnership leads from both Facebook and Google joining the esteemed list of speakers at the upcoming GamesBeat Summit on May 5 and May 6 at the Cavallo Point resort in Sausalito, Calif. They’ll talk about how game developers and publishers can accelerate the growth of their businesses as gaming goes mobile and spreads to new platforms.

Dan Morris, the head of strategic partnerships for games at Facebook, will share some of the social network’s newest recommendations for acquisition and monetization in both mobile and desktop. He recently told VentureBeat that Facebook’s data shows that a large number of publishers are missing key opportunities to monetize. Better data is part of this, and by integrating Facebook’s App Events technology into game apps, developers will get better data for improved installs. Prior to Facebook, Morris was director of strategy and development for Electronic Arts. He was also senior director partnerships at Ngmoco/DeNA.
