Whether education, industry, healthcare or social coexistence - all economic and cultural areas benefit from games and games technologies. With a broad spectrum of topics and top speakers from Germany and abroad, the gamescom congress is in demand far beyond the games industry. In the years before the corona pandemic, tickets were always sold out quickly. This year, the congress will show how digital games and games technologies provide impulses for the economy and society. A highlight at gamescom congress 2022: The talk format Debatt(l)e Royale with Kevin Kühnert (General Secretary, SPD), Mario Czaja (General Secretary, CDU), Emily Büning (Federal Managing Director, Bündnis 90/Die Grünen) and Bijan Djir-Sarai (General Secretary, FDP). The debate will focus on topics such as digital education, togetherness on the net, the potential of digital games or the net infrastructure in Germany.
