Understanding of game inception/hands-on experience with concept creation (not limited to game design) or process management Awareness of the current turning point in Japanese game development Continued willingness to improve on existing development processes

We plan to present real American game development procedures that are generally only available via news reports or lectures. Attendees can get first-hand information from Japanese development staff who have been living in America and working in key positions at an American game studio -- it's a rare opportunity to hear their stories.
