Ziff Davis announced the return of the Electronic Gaming Summit, the
only event of its kind which focuses solely on industry trends and
issues and caters to the video game industry's top-level executives.

The 11th Annual Electronic Gaming Summit will be held on May 19-21 at
the Silverado Resort and Country Club in Napa, California and will be

The 2008 Summit promises to continue its long-standing tradition of
showcasing new strategic marketing approaches and future gaming
industry trends, while providing a platform for leading industry
influencers and executives to educate attendees on the latest industry
issues and network in an exclusive setting.

"We are thrilled to bring back the Electronic Gaming Summit at such a
crucial time with the establishment of the new "current-generation"
consoles," said Jason Young, CEO, Ziff Davis Media. "1UP Network is
widely recognized as the authority on video game culture, and to be
able to provide a platform to present our knowledge, along with the
expertise and insider intelligence of gaming industry leaders, creates
a unique and invaluable experience. We look forward to bringing
together executives from all realms of the gaming industry to see what
2008 and beyond will bring."

For more than 10 years, the Electronic Gaming Summit has been the
gaming industry touchstone for exposing trends and jumpstarting future
industry thinking with topics such as online gaming, social networking
and community, the evolution of next-generation platforms, retail
ecology, and lifestyle/gaming trend crossover.
