Game on for GameCon at UOIT

One thing you can be sure of: everyone will be animated on Tuesday, April 12 at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology (UOIT) when the Faculty of Business and Information Technology (FBIT) showcases student expertise and creativity at the annual end-of-year GameCon. 

If you want to get a sneak peek at the future of gaming, this is the place to be!

GameCon is a one-day event featuring more than 40 teams from all four years of FBIT’s popular Game Development and Entrepreneurship (GDE) program. GameCon participants will preview the games, art and other interactive media they have been developing throughout the year as part of their program requirements.

Many of the creations are a culmination of various FBIT industry-based capstone projects, including those developed by students connected to the FBIT’s Business Incubator program.

GameCon is open to the public and admission is free. Visitors are invited to try out the new game creations, and interact with the students and faculty.
