Riedel: A Place to Meet is Important for the Ecosystem
Thomas Riedel is organising two events for gamescom that are important for the German and international XR scene. In this interview, he talks about XR at gamescom and what other businesses are important besides games.
Once again this year, gamescom will not only bring together the international gaming industry in Cologne, but also numerous representatives from the XR scene. Thanks to Thomas Riedel, the scene has its own events in Cologne, which take place in the surrounding area and even at gamescom itself. ‘When I looked into the XR industry in 2021, I was amazed that there were virtually no XR events at the world's most important gaming event,’ Riedel told GamesMarkt.
