We packed a lot of inspiring speakers and sessions into our GamesBeat Summit Next event coming on November 9-10. This post gives you a peek at our nearly final agenda for the event about the technology and trends that could take gaming to its next level.

We’ll discuss everything from the metaverse to nonfungible tokens and other buzzwords of the moment, and we’ll evaluate the nature of these opportunities. Are they overhyped and scammy waves that will get our feet wet, or will they be tidal waves that sweep through the whole industry like free-to-play and social mobile gaming.
