Sometimes opportunity is subtle . . . sometimes it is not. Born of an engineer's amusing display that became the Pong video game, the digital game industry is now $10 billion annually in the U.S alone. Revenues now exceed annual movie ticket sales. Portable software alone broke the $1 billion mark last year, and the Bureau of Labor predicts job growth in video gaming of 68% between 2002 and 2012. Dallas has a significant share of the digital gaming industry and success. Join us in November to learn more from these experts on investing in and building digital game companies!
