Gamescom Returns as Physical Event This Year
Gamescom will return as an in-person event this year. From August 24 to 28, gamescom 2022 will take place as a hybrid event on-site in Cologne and simultaneously online for millions of fans worldwide. It also kicks off with something completely new: the “gamescom goes green” project. This groundbreaking sustainability initiative makes gamescom the first climate-friendly games event and one of the first major events ever to feature such a comprehensive concept.
Building on previous initiatives such as free public transport tickets and the gamescom forest, all emissions from the core event will now be 100% offset by the gamescom organisers, Koelnmesse and game – the German Games Industry Association, in cooperation with the climate experts at ClimatePartner. To this end, support will go to a wind energy project in Brazil and a clean cooking stove project in Nigeria. Visitors this year will again have an opportunity to make a voluntary contribution to climate protection by supporting the further expansion of the gamescom forest near Bayreuth, which has already grown to cover an area of nearly 20,000 square metres. Exhibitors can also offset the emissions that they produce from stand construction and travel, for instance, by making a contribution to climate protection. These funds will also benefit the two projects in Brazil and Nigeria.
“As the world’s largest games event, gamescom is taking the lead with its sustainability initiative ‘gamescom goes green’: gamescom 2022 will be the first climate-friendly games event – and everyone can join in. For visitors and exhibitors alike, ‘gamescom goes green’ is a project that involves the entire gamescom community. We are aiming here to set an example worldwide for greater environmental and climate protection,” Felix Falk, Managing Director of game, said.

Quantum continues expansion streak with two director-level new hires
Reading Time: 2 minutes
One of betting and gaming’s best-known customer acquisition and comparison businesses, Quantum, has announced the next steps in its ambitious growth plan by welcoming two new director-level appointees.
Joining the business are Dimitris Papamichael as commercial director and Luke Watkin as marketing director – both in newly created roles. They come in alongside a full C-suite and a full team of new tech hires that continues a recruitment drive which began in 2023 – and reflects Quantum’s rapid and consistent growth throughout the last five years.
Papamichael will be responsible for all revenue-generating activities across the business in a pivotal leadership role. He’ll shape Quantum’s commercial strategy as the company diversifies into new verticals while maintaining its strong position in the iGaming sector. He’ll also lead an expanding team of commercial and sales managers.
Watkin will lead the development and execution of the marketing strategy across all business verticals. As marketing director, he’ll be instrumental in shaping Quantum’s marketing vision, building scalable systems, and delivering commercial impact as it expands into new markets. Watkin will build and mentor a high-performing marketing team and is also tasked with driving further recruitment.
Speaking of the appointments and new strategic direction, CMO James McCarthy said: “It’s a pleasure to welcome Dimitris and Luke to Quantum during what is undoubtedly a really fascinating time in our growth. From cementing our relationship with some of iGaming’s biggest names to helping us expand into exciting new sectors, both of our new Directors will be integral to the continued success of the business.”
Papamichael said: “I’m thrilled to be joining Quantum at such an exciting stage of its incredible growth journey. The company has already achieved so much, and there’s huge potential ahead as we expand into new markets and sectors. I can’t wait to work with the exceptionally talented team here to seize the many opportunities ahead and drive the next phase of growth.”
Watkin said: “I am delighted to join a business with such a proven track record of excellence in its core markets, as well as highly ambitious plans for strategic expansion into new markets and territories. I am looking forward to contributing towards building on the exceptional progress the team has made to date, and accelerating that growth in the years ahead.”
This people news comes hot on the heels of the company’s exciting rebrand news of last week, moving toward the “quantum” in QiH Group” as well as redefining the business’ purpose and strategic direction.
