BOOK FOR 2026

Live Service Gaming North America Summit Rewind!

Last April, we brought together leaders from studios like Supercell, Tencent, 2K, Riot Games, Bethesda Softworks, and more to tackle some of the most pressing challenges facing live service teams today.

Over two days, the summit created a space for honest, in-depth conversations, uniting a passionate community around the future of live service gaming. From retention strategies to monetization models, attendees shared insights that are shaping the next generation of player experiences.

Now, we’re gearing up for the second edition of this event, where we’ll go even deeper. Expect fresh perspectives, actionable strategies, and collaborative discussions designed to help studios thrive in an evolving landscape.

We can’t wait to welcome (and welcome back) the gaming leaders driving live service forward.

The #LSGNASummit Community Speaks

“The Live Service Gaming Summit was incredibly valuable because there was a diverse set of speakers and topics that reshaped how I think about and solve problems at my own company.”

“Was a great opportunity to connect with others in the live service industry. I hope it continues to evolve and improve!!!”

“If you're building tools or services for live games, the Live Services Gaming Summit is worth your time. It’s a focused environment where you can meet developers, understand their challenges, and see how others in the ecosystem are approaching similar problems.”

“Attending the Live Service Gaming Summit was an incredibly valuable experience for me as a Community Lead for a startup. The sessions offered real, actionable insights into the evolving landscape of live service games, especially around security, scalable game infrastructure, long-term player engagement, community building, and so much more."

“Speaking at the Live Services Gaming Summit was a meaningful opportunity to connect with industry peers in a more intimate setting—away from the bustle of larger events like GDC. I was grateful for the chance to share how AI can be integrated into personal workflows, not just as a tool, but as a true teammate in the creative and strategic process.”

“The LSGS had some incredible speakers, and many insights into how to maintain a long term live game. There is no other conference that has as much content for Live Operations and improving your live game engagement and revenue.”

“Clean, organized, and little fluff. In a world of overdone events, Live Service Gaming Summit gets it right.”

“It was an honor to speak at such a well-executed and insight-rich summit. The IQPC team curated a compelling program with truly relevant topics, and the intimate scale made it easy to have real conversations with leaders shaping the future of live service games. Both as a speaker and an attendee, I found it to be one of the most productive industry events I’ve ever participated in."

“Fantastic event providing unique access to the brightest minds and insights for our fast-changing industry.”

“An excellent summit which brought together the big names in live service gaming and delivered to that community an opportunity to learn, network and collaborate. I will definitely be attending next time and look forward to helping build this key competence in our industry.”

“The Live Service Gaming Summit 2025 was an incredibly valuable experience. It brought together top minds from across the industry to share real, actionable insights into the future of live ops and direct-to-player monetization. I left the event inspired, better connected, and armed with new strategies i'm ready to apply to my own work. Highly recommended for anyone working on live service games.”

“This event was simply the best event I've been to since before COVID. It was small, directed, and filled with my peers who are deeply focused on the subject domain. We had real talks about how to do real things, and not the generic overviews you find at events like the GDC and Gamesbeat.”
