After careful thought about the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) pandemic and the best interest of our community, we will be producing GamesBeat Summit 2020 as a fully distributed, digital event — meaning there will be no centralized studios or physical location.

Many of you may have seen our original announcement from March 3 regarding GamesBeat Summit (April 28 and April 29) and our response to the coronavirus outbreak. The health and safety of our GamesBeat community, attendees, employees, and sponsors remains our top priority.
