The Inaugural Meeting of the Athens Chapter of Georgia Game Developers Association (which I’m hoping will be co-branded as an IGDA chapter as well) will be today, November 11th, at the Pub at Gameday. The full annoucement of the event can be found on the GGDA website. The synopsis listed on the site is:
The launch meeting of the GGDA Athens Chapter will focus on letting interested members of the Athens community know about these efforts and the role that the GGDA and IGDA plays in assisting the efforts of members. Dr. Casey O’Donnell of the University of Georgia and President of the Athens Chapter will be updating attendees of his and UGA’s gaming related efforts as well as discussing what he hopes will be a new pocket of game development and innovation. It is also an opportunity to gauge interest in participation in the Global Game Jam events on January 30th
I will post photos and event notes here after the meeting. The slides have been posted as a SWF file here.
