WILA Games and Education Industry Collider

The Collider will return in February of 2026 at our new venue Cornish Playhouse (just across Seattle Center from PacSci).

The Washington Interactive Learning Alliance (WILA) co-founded by Seattle Indies, Seattle EdTech Meetup, foundry10, and Perfect Day Games, is teaming up to bring you a classic Collider evening event featuring a fireside chat with Portal creator Kim Swift, a panel discussion with industry leaders in the space, breakout roundtable sessions and our usual expo floor. You will also get to hear an update from the WILA sponsored capstone project team at UW last year and the exciting tool they created to specifically help game developers and educators think about building games that are classroom ready.

The focus of this year’s Collider is making games classroom ready, whether you're an educator, a game developer, or simply curious about the future of education, the Games and Education Collider is the place to be. Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to connect, learn, and be inspired!

Food will be provided at no cost. If you have any questions or you would like to exhibit a game, project, product or technology at the event please reach out to us at [email protected].
