Gaming is the most powerful social connector of our time, a space where identity is expressed, communities are forged, and culture is remixed daily. “Power in Play” reveals how gamers across geographies and backgrounds see play as core to who they are. This session will exclusively unveil insights from Livewire's proprietary research and explore the implications for culture, creativity, and brand storytelling in a world where gaming is the new cultural lingua franca.

Gaming has moved far beyond entertainment. It is now a defining cultural force, shaping how people connect, communicate, and construct identity across borders. From avatars and online communities to esports and streaming, gaming has become the arena where self expression and belonging take center stage. Livewire’s proprietary “Power in Play” research provides the first in depth global look at how gamers view themselves, their communities, and their role in culture. This keynote will exclusively reveal those insights, highlighting the diverse ways gaming intersects with ethnicity, income, and social platforms, and what this means for brands looking to remain relevant. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of why gaming is not just a medium but the new cultural language of identity and how to authentically engage with this audience at scale. View Less
