Last weekend, we ventured beyond our usual horizons and visited SPIEL Essen – the world's largest board game fair. This year's event was sold out on all days. With 220,000 gaming enthusiasts and 77,500 m² of exhibition space, it set new records for both visitor numbers and exhibition space. The SPIEL was attended by 948 exhibitors from 50 countries.

We were thrilled by the many exciting new products and had some very productive conversations with game developers with a view to establishing new partnerships in the industry.
