enterpriseSeattle’s Washington Interactive Network will convene its 3rd annual Power of Play Economic Update Lunch on September 3rd by welcoming a panel of industry executives to explore the state of the art in our region’s $4.2 billion Interactive Media Industry.
As a dominate player in this arena, how is our region surviving the economy? What does it mean to the independent developer whose creativity and entrepreneurship feed this economic engine?
