When a spark of mutual interest ignites between a publisher and a developer, it is important to realistically assess the terms of cooperation. Large publishers usually have model agreements concluded.
During the two webinars, we will analyze certain points from such contracts that can lead to long and difficult partings in the future if you don't look at things realistically.
Webinar #1: Game Publishing Agreement: video game publishing exclusivity
At our webinar we will talk about:
- Game Publishing Agreement: what is it and why do people use it?
- Terms of exclusivity and ownership of the rights to the video game.
- Conditions for the joint development of a video game, test runs and technical support.

The webinar will take part on May 18 at 11:00 (Minsk time). The language of the webinar is russian.
Webinar #2: Game Publishing Agreement: Financial Terms, Responsibility and Disagreement Terms
During the webinar, we will analyze how income is shared in the relationship between a publisher and a developer, who is responsible for what, and how cooperation can end in parting.
