We’re grateful to announce a special opportunity for our community! Thanks to our partners at GamesBeat, the IGDA Foundation has received five complimentary passes (each valued at $1,200) to GamesBeat Next 2025, happening in San Francisco on November 12–13.

For the first time, we’re using these exclusive tickets as part of a fundraising raffle in support of our mission to advance diversity and inclusion in the game development industry.

Here’s how it works:

Every $50 donation to the IGDA Foundation = one entry into the raffle.
There’s no limit to the number of entries you can earn.
Five lucky winners will each receive a pass to GamesBeat Next.

Your donation directly supports our programs that create opportunities for marginalized and underrepresented developers—and gives you a chance to join industry leaders and innovators at GamesBeat Next.
