This years Casual Connect Europe event, operated by the Casual Games Association, is being held in the Congress Center, Hamburg, from 10th to 12th February 2010.

Casual Connect Europe is a gathering of thousands of casual gaming professionals from around the world – it’s likely that the producer of this year’s next big thing in casual games will be at the event.

If you have ever played a quick game online you’ve probably played a casual game, but they are now finding their way into mobile devices, set top boxes, and even onto home gaming consoles. The Casual Connect event includes networking events and opportunities, a sneak peak of new technologies and upcoming games and devices, and speaker sessions with tracks including game development, mobility, social games, massively multiplayer, marketing and advertising.
