TGS isn't just a trade show. It's Asia's premier business platform where global game publishers, developers, and UA specialists forge real partnerships.
Why Playio Was There
Playio didn't set up a booth. Instead, we focused on what truly matters.
Meaningful business matching. Through TGS's official Biz-Matching System, we met with global publishers and developers. We listened to their UA challenges, user acquisition strategies, and market-specific insights. Instead of flashy displays, we talked about how to connect advertisers with Real Gamers precisely.
Networking is the solution. Asian publishers' global expansion concerns, European studios' Asia market entry strategies, North American game companies' cross-border UA needs. Every conversation on the ground became an insight that refines Playio's global UA solutions.
What We Did on the Ground
✅ 10+ Business Meetings: Strengthened existing partnerships and explored new collaboration opportunities
✅ Asia Pacific Game Summit Attendance: Captured 2026 mobile gaming trends and UA strategy insights
✅ Cross-Regional Intelligence: Discussed Real Gamer behavior patterns across Asian, European, and North American markets
✅ Real-Time Feedback: Listened to advertisers' actual needs and validated solution directions on-site
✅ Partner Office Visit: Beyond TGS itself, we visited a Taiwanese partner's office to get a ground-level read on the local market — what games are trending, what players are gravitating toward, and why.
Beyond TGS: Playio's Global Presence
Taipei Game Show 2026 wasn't an isolated event. And our activities didn't stop when the doors closed.
Playio has consistently maintained a presence at major gaming events worldwide—GDC, Gamescom, ChinaJoy, G-STAR. Our reason for being there is clear: To help advertisers find Real Gamers. That means not just walking the show floor, but diving deeper into each market we visit.
The publishers we met at TGS already knew. Playio doesn't just 'attend.' We're the partner who meets clients on the ground, reads the market up close, and delivers tangible UA results.
The Takeaway
Playio doesn't just 'show up' at events. We're there to listen to advertisers and design the optimal path to reach Real Gamers.
Taipei Game Show 2026 was one chapter in that journey. And the next chapter has already begun.
Where will we meet next? Playio is always on the ground in the global gaming industry
