Gameloft's Raúl Orrego to Share Insights at PGC Barcelona
Raúl Orrego, the general manager and executive producer of Gameloft Barcelona, is set to take the stage at Pocket Gamer Connects in Barcelona on June 15th and 16th. He will be part of a lineup featuring prominent industry figures from companies such as Rovio, Scopely, FunPlus, and Socialpoint. Gameloft's Barcelona studio, a major player in the local gaming landscape since its inception in 2000, has developed popular titles like Asphalt Legends and Disney Speedstorm.
Orrego's session will focus on decision-making under pressure, aptly titled 'Time To Resolve.' As described in the session details, he will discuss the challenges faced during game launches, particularly when things don’t go as planned. Drawing from his three years of experience with Asphalt Legends, he will introduce 'The Console,' a decision-making framework that incorporates insights from four disciplines: economics, engineering, psychology, and biology. This framework is designed to help game developers make quick, impactful decisions, balancing immediate calls with those that require deeper analysis.
As Pocket Gamer Connects returns for its second year in Barcelona, the event is expected to attract over 1,000 professionals from the gaming industry, creating opportunities for networking, investment, and learning. The conference will cover a wide range of topics related to mobile, PC, console, AI, and HTML5 gaming, all set against the vibrant backdrop of one of Europe’s key cultural and tech hubs.
