In conjuction with the annual ASEAN Entrepreneurship Summit 2015 (1AES 2015) which will be held in Malaysia, Multimedia Development Corporation (MDeC) is organizing Level UP KL 2015, Southeast Asia’s regional premier convention for the Gaming Community. Featuring an eclectic mix of Local and International players in the rapidly growing Game Industry, Level UP KL is positioned to offer something for everyone – from Developers to Recruiters to Gamers themselves.
Level Up KL will be held at DoubleTree by Hilton on the 18th – 19th of November. The event will be divided into two sessions, one for the business community and another for the public. The business community session will be more focused on Interaction, Knowledge Sharing, Exposure and Showcase.
The business session of the event will feature several speakers from well known gaming companies like Blizzard, Square Enix, Bioware, Ubisoft and many more. Level UP KL will start from 9:00 AM up to 7:00 PM for both days of the event. There will also be a separate event for the community called POWER UP KL which will be held on the 15th – 17th of November just before Level Up KL.
POWER UP KL Game Jam is where developers from across ASEAN will compete in a 48-hour Hackathon. The 48-hour hackathon will be supported by several well known industry experts from Sony Computer Entertaintment, Square Enix, Unity and many more. Not only will the top three winners win tempting prizes, the top ten winners will also be automatically submitted for MDeC’s National Initiatives for Gaming that will upscale them to larger access to funds and markets.
