M+Dev 2020: Celebrate Valentines Day with The Midwest’s Hottest Developers

M+Dev is returning to the Alliant Energy Center in Madison, Wisconsin on February 14 – Valentines Day!  M+DEV is a video game development conference hosted by the Wisconsin Games Alliance that aims to engage game developers and all the many talented professionals who support the industry. It is a great venue for those seeking to enter professional roles that support the game development industry. This conference provides a gathering place for game developers in the state, the region and beyond to discuss and share the latest information on the science, art, mechanics and business of making games.

M+Dev provides the opportunity for people working within the broad context of game development to engage in professional development and networking activities.  This conference seeks to meet a broad diversity of needs. Many think of video games in the realm of AAA entertainment releases, but video games on a broader spectrum also include educational or serious games, and digital training platforms and simulations. To this end, M+Dev works hard to provide great experiences for those working in the entertainment, educational/academic, and professional development/training settings.
