The 2010 Year Book by InterGame will be a dedicated directory for the games and gaming industries, published in November.

As well as providing a useful who’s who of the industry, this publication will also contain comprehensive information about the business worldwide. The publication will contain a section devoted to providing an overview of various regional markets, both for the games and gaming industries. Areas covered will be Europe, the Americas, Asia, Africa, the Middle East and Australasia.

We will also be asking leading industry figures to provide their own personal views of the current state of the business and what they think the future will bring. There will be a section too on all the latest technological innovations - looking at the factors that have the potential to take the industry forward over the coming years.

InterGame will be working in partnership with advertising sales agency Open Box Publishing of Birmingham, UK, a company jointly owned by Samantha Skiller and Stuart Walters. With over 30 years of publishing experience, Walters was previously the commercial director for McMillan Scott (now Ten Alps Publishing) and sales director for Kemps Publishing and ran his own internet publishing company. Skiller has worked in publishing and media sales for 15 years. After a successful management career with Kemps Publishing she launched a new office for McMillan Scott in Birmingham, starting many new publications for blue chip clients such as the CBI, chambers of commerce and several trade associations. Open Box manages a wide portfolio of magazines, directories and web sites for several major publishers as well as private and public sector organisations.

Christine Butterworth, publisher of InterGame, commented:  "We are excited about our new relationship with Open Box, who will be contacting advertisers shortly to discuss the business opportunities in the 2010 Year Book."
