What it really takes to lead a modern game studio

Grand Ballroom 3
4:35 pm - 6:10 pm

A candid, practical discussion on what it really takes to lead a modern game studio through both growth and turbulence. We’ll explore how to sustain team health while scaling, balance creative ambition with operational stability, and navigate the pressures that accompany success. This session looks at how leaders can foster psychological safety, make resilient structures, and support teams through demanding development realities – without losing sight of culture, clarity, or the humans behind the work.
