Law firm sponsor of Guildford.Games Festival delighted at event's success
More than 1,000 people attended the sell-out Guildford.Games Festival at G-Live - and law firm sponsor Charles Russell Speechlys is delighted it was such a successful event.
Rebecca Burford, Partner at Charles Russell Speechlys and a Non-Executive Director of Guildford.Games, commented: "It was a fantastic sold-out ticketed event, providing an opportunity to meet various studios at the developer expo, a cosplay competition and a chance to play classic locally-produced Guildford games.
“As well as the in-person event at G-Live, live content was streamed on the well-known video game live streaming service Twitch as part of the digital festival for those that couldn’t be there in person or couldn’t get hold of a ticket.”
Sally Ashford, Partner and Head of the Charles Russell Speechlys’ Guildford Office, added: “We are so pleased to have sponsored the Guildford.Games Festival this year as part of our continued support of the Guildford Games community. Congratulations to all the team for keeping the Guildford Games magic alive.”
