Following an agreement between consultancy KWP and EAG International, visitors will have an opportunity to attend a full day of seminars addressing the latest trends in immersive out-of-home entertainment.
Taking place at the London show on Tuesday, January 14, the programme has been designed to focus specifically on the impact of new technologies on the amusements and attractions sectors.
KWP’s Kevin Williams explains: “For too long there has been a concentration on technology at the expense of its application to amusements and attractions. We’ve designed the seminars to be succinct and highly relevant.
“We’ve assembled a stellar cast of presenters who are at the top of their game. These are the people who are already driving forward the adoption of these technologies by amusement and attractions operators.”
Media platform developer Hologate has been a strong supporter of EAG International, both as an exhibitor and at seminar sessions. In a relatively young industry, CEO and founder Leif Petersen has acquired an impressive level of experience in the creation of content for permanent and event-based virtual multi-user experiences in environments as diverse as arcades and esports. Leif will be presenting the session Hologate - Defining Immersive Entertainment
SPREE Interactive head of sales Paul Collimore will be presenting Defining Younger Immersive Play. He has a great track record for creating animated and immersive content for the themed attraction industry. SPREE Interactive enjoys an impressive client list, including ABBA The Museum.
Already a valued contributor to EAG, Immotion Group CEO Martin Higginson will be hosting the session entitled Immersive Deployment For The FEC. Immotion has developed many VR entertainment zones at major venues, including The O2 and LegoLand, and introduced some pioneering business models.
With more ground-breaking sessions still to be added, the free-to-attend day will provide exceptional value for experienced operators of immersive attractions, as well as for those who are considering their first steps.
