“It’s fantastic to be able to support an event like Games Britannia and help to inspire the next generation of videogame talent,” said Porter.
“Sheffield has a long history of game development, which allows Sumo to draw upon a large, experienced talent pool. But we’re always interested in spotting and developing new talent as well.”
The conference – taking place in Yorkshire and centred around the Magna Science Adventure Centre – brings together the industry with youngsters and educators with a view to enthuse the next generation of games sector talent.
