It’s that time of year again: GamesBeat NEXT 2026 is almost upon us, and with it comes another iteration of your favorite panel: The BOSS Mode Breakfast, formerly known as the Women in Gaming, Tech and Entertainment Executive Breakfast. This will be our 18th women-centered breakfast panel at our events.
This year, we’re holding a panel featuring several leaders in the gaming space. In addition to the panel itself, guests are free to enjoy breakfast and networking during this time. The breakfast begins on November 3 at 9 a.m., with the panel beginning at 9:20 a.m., with the title, “BOSS Mode: Leading with Impact — Women in Gaming & Tech: Driving Business in the $200 Billion Interactive Economy.”
The panel will explore the opportunities emerging across these industries, how women leaders are driving innovation and measurable business impact, and what it takes to turn new technologies, platforms, and ideas into growth and ROI. We’ll also look at how brands are showing up across the interactive economy — including gaming and other emerging platforms — and the role women leaders are playing in building what’s next.
I’ll have the pleasure of moderating the discussion once more, and I’ll be joined by four fascinating panelists:
Kimberly Pointer Corbett is the CEO of UltraLayer, a marketing services company. Before that, she left her mark on the games industry as the SVP of digital publishing at Warner Bros. Games, where she worked on titles like Hogwarts Legacy, LEGO Star Wars and Mortal Kombat. She was also previously the Chief Publishing Officer at Fortis Games and VP of user acquisition at Zynga.
