Do you have deep game-development knowledge? Unique insight into using Unity and its features? Unite 2023 is a great opportunity to share that expertise with the Unity community – tell your gamedev story, demo an innovative workflow, explain a cool coding or art trick, share a player-acquisition breakthrough or another highly relevant topic for our audience.
Unite 2023 will focus on many exciting aspects of creating, launching, and growing games with the latest tools, technology, and market intel – and we’d like you to be part of it. Here are the four themes for creator-led sessions that we’d like you to consider proposing a session for:
- Exploring Unity’s dynamic ecosystem for creators
We believe that the world is a better place with more creators in it, and Unity in 2023 has more to offer creators than ever before – from artistry tools to LiveOps services to growth solutions to important updates for the Unity game engine. See how Unity powers a thriving gaming ecosystem with an expansive portfolio to help creators at every step. - Reimagining game development and play with AI
The recent explosion of generative AI capabilities is transforming how games can be designed, developed, and played. AI- and ML-driven techniques can reduce complexity, speed up creation and, most importantly, unlock new ideas, which speaks to the heart of Unity’s vision to empower the world’s creators. - Building a live and multiplayer game
Unity offers a powerful, innovative suite of tools to support the creation of multiplayer games spanning all genres and platforms – from dedicated hosting to friends list management to in-game voice chat. See how Unity supports you in designing, building, deploying, and operating multiplayer games, every step of the way. - Turning a big idea into big success
With proven solutions across the game growth cycle that are integrated with game creation workflows, Unity is making it easier than ever to turn your big idea into big success. See how you can get started growing your game, from publishing to launch, including testing your prototype, implementing monetization that maximizes revenue without hurting player experience, and growing your user base to global scale.
You have until July 11 to send us your best ideas for an engaging session, featuring one or more speakers. We encourage session proposals for all levels of expertise (from beginners to experts), from all genders, backgrounds, and communities, and particularly from groups typically underrepresented in technology and engineering.
All selected speakers must be available to present their session in person November 15–16 in Amsterdam and will receive one complimentary pass to Unite (travel and lodging are not included). As well, all selected speakers will be required to complete a comarketing agreement allowing Unity unlimited, royalty-free, worldwide rights and licenses to distribute, use, display, and redistribute all or any portion of the session.
Proposals will be reviewed by Unity experts to ensure alignment with the four Unite 2023 themes, our global audience, innovative use of Unity solutions, diversity, and how the content will support continued education for our creators. Submissions will be reviewed and speakers notified of acceptance (or not) by July 22, 2023.
Here are some tips to help strengthen your session proposal:
- Cover topics from our Game Focus series, AI, or monetization.
- Showcase a workflow or common task that your industry peers can benefit from (tell us who, and why).
- Incorporate an engaging demo from your game or sample project.
