Huawei is inviting global developers to bring their apps and games to their next stage of growth through AppGallery during its upcoming featured developer sessions at the annual Gaming Developer Conference (GDC) 2021.

GDC is an annual video game conference that focuses on developers, bringing the global community together to exchange ideas, create connections, and learn new skills to advance their craft. The 2021 edition will see the conference go all-digital, allowing the event to be accessible to even more people with online attendance.

 

Educational sessions to help developers grow and prosper

The two sessions will bring developers through an educational journey on how AppGallery plays a critical role as a key platform to developer’s growth strategy, as well as explore new ways of monetisation strategy for mobile games with Huawei Ads.

“Gaming is going through several fundamental transitions from the evolving demographics of global game players to a transformation of cross-platform gaming experiences,” said Alexandre Salem, Global Gaming Business Development Director. “AppGallery presents unique growth opportunities with its extensive distribution, market reach, and strength in the Chinese market; with Huawei’s combined hardware and software innovation with HarmonyOS and HMS, it delivers an elevated experience that can maximize the value for gaming partners and users.”

In the first session ‘Find your next big win with AppGallery’, Alexandre, as well as Gavin Kinghall Were, Global Head of BD Solutions, Consumer Business Group, Huawei, will be joined by Aurelien Lavaud, Global BD Director, Gameloft, and Maxim Kirilenko, Chief Business Development Officer, Playrix, to discuss their experience incorporating AppGallery as part of their global growth strategy in their game launch and expansion. From launch to marketing support, AppGallery provides valuable resources for developers to help expand their growth opportunities with every new game they release.

“We are excited to meet global game developers and invite everybody to explore the next growth opportunity with AppGallery. We are also very grateful to have our partners Playrix and Gameloft join us to share their journey with AppGallery, and hope more partners will join us to explore more and expand together with AppGallery,” he added.

In the following session ‘HUAWEI Ads: Drive Growth with a New Ad Platform’, Aoife Brodigan, Marketing Director, Huawei Mobile Services, Europe, and Stephane Fournis, Director of Business Development, HUAWEI Ads, Europe, will be introducing the HUAWEI Ads’ new monetisation opportunities, the platform’s unique value and support, as well strategic tips to drive growth through building new revenue streams.

As part of the GDC 2021 sessions, Huawei will also unveil an in-depth case study ebook of its recently concluded inaugural global Game Fest campaign, which saw doubling its daily download figures to over 1.2 million hits during the height of the campaign. The eBook shares in detail the journey and achievements of each of the 13 participating developers, and the support they received to help their games flourish on AppGallery. More details will be made available during the week of GDC 2021.

 

AppGallery continues to offer invaluable resources for developers’ growth

Sends CEO Alona Shevtsova moderates Global Gaming Expansion panel in Riyadh

Alona Shevtsova, CEO of Sends, will moderate a panel at The Blockchain show on 29th June, bringing together experts from entertainment, location-based gaming, and content localisation to examine what it takes to build sustainable gaming ecosystems across emerging markets.

The panel, titled “Global Gaming Expansion: Lessons from Untapped Markets,” will structure its discussion across four themes: the growth dynamics reshaping emerging gaming markets; the role of localisation in creating experiences that genuinely connect with new audiences; the infrastructure and communities needed to build gaming ecosystems beyond the game itself; and the lessons and opportunities that will define successful expansion in the years ahead.

Alona Shevtsova plans to frame the discussion around the central challenge for companies looking to expand globally: entering a new market requires far more than bringing an existing product to a new audience. Understanding local cultures, building communities, adapting experiences, and creating ecosystems that allow gaming to grow sustainably are all as important as the product itself.

Alona Shevtsova, CEO of Sends, said:

“The future growth of gaming will come not only from new technologies, but from understanding people — their cultures, communities, and the experiences they want to be part of. Successful expansion will belong to those who can combine global ambition with local understanding.”

The first segment will examine why regions including the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia are becoming increasingly significant for developers, operators, and investors — driven by young audiences, accelerating digital adoption, and new entertainment models creating substantial growth potential. Panellists will explore how consumer preferences differ across markets and what trends among younger audiences are shaping the future of gaming and entertainment.

The third segment will broaden the lens beyond the game itself, exploring the role of location-based entertainment, gaming centres, esports, and experiential destinations in attracting new audiences and building long-term communities. Panellists plan to address how entertainment ecosystems — spanning physical venues, events, and community infrastructure — accelerate gaming adoption in markets where the category is still establishing itself.

Earlier this month, Alona Shevtsova was shortlisted for the 2026 Great British Entrepreneur Awards in the Established Business of the Year category. Her team is also preparing for the Fintech Connect conference in London later this year. Sends will be a leading sponsor of this event.
