DEVersity Brunch

Caroline Flesch, Rebekka Niederländer

A brunch to connect under-represented people with each other and make the games industry more diverse!

WERK1 Café

Welcome to the DEVersity Brunch in Munich!Following the great reception of the More Women In Games Brunch, we want to include more underrepresented groups and help them find a way into the games industry. Join us on the 15th of June for a brunch and intersting talks. The DEVersity brunch is open to all, but we want to focus on marginalized groups and empower them.We are hosting cozy brunch that's secretly a knowledge sharing and networking event for marginalized people who want to create, design, develop, promote, publish and/or review games.Why are we doing this? It's pretty simple, we want to empower all under-represented people to participate fully in the game industry across all sectors and we want even more amazing games from a diverse set of people. Our way to contribute to this is by connecting newcomers and showcase the work of folk who are already in the games industry.Is this event for me? (Spoiler: Yes!)Newcomers: Are you fascinated by games, love playing them and you are interested in how to develop them or promote them to a larger audience? Then this brunch is for you! We require absolutely no prior experience. Hang out with us, listen to our speakers, ask any qestions, chat with other people who love games, learn a couple new things and maybe find yourself a mentor to guide you on your journey towards games.Professionals: Do you want to hang out with more games people? On a Saturday morning!? Outside of work?!? You must be crazy. But also that is awesome - so do we! Drop by our little brunch and listen to our speakers drop nuggets of wisdom. Want to do your part in getting more marginalized people to join the industry? Here's the place to chat with a bunch of bright-eyed and bushy-tailed newcomers that could profit from your experience.Agenda10:00	- Admission + Brunch10:30	- Welcome10:45	- Talk #1: Robin Rottmann, Managing Director at All Your Base: This is sh*t, thanks for nothing!

We operate under the same assumptions as all other sane games events, put into words by our friends over in Berlin. Read the <a href="http://berlingamescene.com/safe-space-policy/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Safe Space Policy</a> here.FAQsBrunch? Will there be food? Free food?!Yes! And we're as excited about that as you are! Free food is the best kind of food. Especially free breakfast food!I'm a cisgender hetero able-bodied caucasian man! This event is not advertised for me. Can I still come?We want to encourage members of minority groups to join our event and exchange experiences. Plus we want to make sure that we feature diverse speakers from our industry as much as possible. This is why we do not specifically address majority groups for our event.It's as new to us as it is to you since we're also used to the reverse from all other events we attend. But of course you can still join and get to know all kinds of diverse people! And no worries, we are still running and attending other games events that are less restrictive. Drop by the GAME/DEV/MUC and GameCamp Munich web sites to join us there. And tell your marginalized friends and colleagues to come to our brunch!I did not manage to find this in time and now it's sold out - can I still come?Nope, sorry. We want to make this a pretty cozy event and so we can't host more than 30 people. But here's the silver lining: There is a waiting list. Join it and we'll get you a ticket if someone else cancels. And - assuming everything goes well - there will be another Brunch in the near future.

We'll do announcements in German and English. The questions-and-answers part will be in English. Our speakers are probably going to hold their talks in English as well, though there is a chance that someone will be more comfortable with German.We are always happy to help out those not fully comfortable with English. The perfect opportunity to practice your skills in a safe space!Is there a minimum age requirements to enter the event?Not really. But if you're under 16 please ask your parents if they can accompany you. They don't need a ticket.Is my ticket transferrable?Nope! Please cancel your registration if you can't make it so someone else can join from the waiting list.Who made this amazing logo?I'm glad you asked! Our logo was made by the ever-so-talented <a href="https://twitter.com/Simonemaendl" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Simone Mändl</a>, freelance / independent game artist extraordinaire.How can I contact the organizer with any questions?You can contact us on twitter:Caroline <a href="https://twitter.com/fl3sch" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">@fl3sch</a>Rebekka <a href="https://twitter.com/RebekkaTweetet" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">@RebekkaTweetet</a>
