CIMFest – a celebration of the South’s game and simulation developers! CIMFest brings together some of SIEGE's most popular speakers, like Bob Carter and Joe Cassavaugh, as well as those you have never before, like Levoski Brown, general manager of the professional Armada esports team, and animator (and animation researcher) Demetrius Dukes.

CIMFest welcomes all times of speakers from historians, people in security, simulations, teachers, etc. Special Events include a keynote speaker, networking lunch and an opportunity to recruit young aspiring people looking for jobs in the game industry. Come on out and meet developers from the southern part of Georgia and see what projects student have made.

Join us July 13, 2019 on the campus of Columbus State University to see the latest and greatest technologies and productions for these fields. Go HERE for speaker bios.
