Conference aboard the MS Princess - 1 pm
The Portside Game Assembly Conference will start on June 27, at 1 pm on board of the MS Princess, which will take off to a marvellous boat tour through the famos Hamburg Harbor, while conference guests can engage in various program points on three decks. Decision-makers from indie studios will be on board to discuss topics in a confidential setting at roundtables. Keynote speeches will set the tone for topics relating to business strategies and business ideas and initiate an in-depth exchange.
The MS Princess will depart from its dock at the Überseebrücke near the harbor promenade and the Landungsbrücken public transport station. It is important to reach the MS Princess in time to guarantee a flawless time schedule and to avoid missing the cruise.
During the cruise through the diverse canals of the Port of Hamburg, conference participants can not only engage in various program points, there are also plenty of opportunities to withdraw for more private conversations while enjoying a coffee and some snacks. Our tip: The spacious sun deck in particular is the perfect place to get into contact in sunny weather with a light breeze.
At the end of the cruise, the MS Princess returns to its dock close to the Überseebrücke.
