< Back 2020 Cohort Mini-Conference The recent 2020 cohort Mini-Conference was a great success! It was held in York and focused on highlighting the work being submitted and published by the iGGi PGRs at this stage in their projects. The cohort members had a chance to meet one another (as due to the pandemic, some still had not ever met before!) and to take a deep dive in to each-other's work, sharing knowledge in a simultaneously bonding and educational trip. The meet certainly fostered ideas for some collaborations between students, so watch this space! Previous 20 Apr 2022 Next

< Back iGGi at Develop:Brighton 2023 Following the previous year’s success, the iGGi stand featured again on the Expo floor of the 2023 Develop:Brighton conference . This year’s Expo saw a record breaking 4970 visitors over the two days of its running (43% up from 3471 in 2022), and many of these visitors dropped by the iGGi stand to chat to us. Shifts at the iGGi stand were covered by the conference-attending iGGi PG Researchers (15 in total) who appreciated a break from their (often solitary) thesis/research work. With its stand presence at the Develop:Brighton Expo, iGGi is promoting the intersection between games industry and research. We are looking to engage the two in conversation. We want to foster ways of knowledge exchange that are mutually beneficial to both sides. If you want to learn more about existing pathways of knowledge exchange between iGGi and games companies, you can check out our Industry Info + KE page , but we are also always open for new ideas and formats. Please do get in touch if you require any further information. Previous 14 Jul 2023 Next

< Back Joint Writing Retreat - November 2023 Another fantastic Joint Writing Retreat was had with our colleagues at MAT , CDE and AIM this week at the beautiful High Leigh. Feedback from the event, was, as always really positive with: 100% of respondents saying the retreat was useful and beneficial to their research/progress 96% saying they would recommend it to others 95% saying they produced more content than expected With comments about the primary benefit of the retreat being: Scheduled writing time and not having to worry about preparing food, chores etc Refreshing and networking with people in a similar but different sphere made me reframe I feel good writing in a big group. And I have good mood in here Very focused working time and environment. More productive than the office. Very quiet and focused. Not having to think about what food to buy and to prepare and to cook takes the mental load off to just focus on writing. It's surprising how much fretting about food preparation for the week takes out of your day. Here is the word cloud created from the Mentimeter “poll of 3 words” to describe the retreat: Previous 24 Nov 2023 Next
