On Tuesday, February 11, 2020, O&A co-sponsored a supper event with the L.A. Video Game Supper Club. This event took place as part of the first day of the D.I.C.E. (Design, Innovate, Communicate, Entertain) 2020 Summit, a multi-day annual event that brings together the top video game designers and developers from around the world and business leaders from all major publishers to discuss the state of the industry, its trends and the future.
Founded by Justin Berenbaum of Xsolla and Greg Lovett of Cresa, the L.A. Video Game Supper Club’s mission is to gather some of L.A.’s finest people, along with distinguished visitors from the Video Game Industry, in one place, once a quarter to enjoy each other’s company in a casual, fun, foodie place. Last Tuesday’s event broke from the typical routine of L.A. dining and was instead held at Jean-Georges’ Steakhouse at the Aria Resort & Casino in Las Vegas. There were approximately 150 attendees, including O&A’s own Kevin Pasternak, along with some of our clients and industry friends including Jake DiGennaro and Dennis Cooper of Virtuos, Jamie Ottilie of GPC Games, Jon Van Caneghem of Tencent, and Matt Candler of ESDF Management, amongst many others.
“We are pleased to support the L.A. Video Game Supper Club, one of the truly native-to-LA interactive entertainment communities. As O&A has its roots in the interactive entertainment industry as well as being native to LA itself, this seemed like the perfect fit. The rise of the L.A. Video Game Supper Club reflects the rise of L.A. as one of the pre-eminent cities for interactive entertainment” said Dan Offner, Founder and Managing Partner of O&A.
