The addition of GSL Professional has been an overwhelming success providing the ideal environment for the UK trade to get together for a day of networking and business."
Plans are already underway for 2012s event, with a further extension planned for the Game Zone and an increase in capacity for the Super Theatre.
Organisers are also looking at adding new zones to support specific genres of technology, making navigation easier for visitors.
