The 8th Annual AI Programmer's Dinner
Sponsors
(2005 GDC)

The Eighth Annual Game AI Programmer's Dinner was simply fantastic thanks in no small part to the support of several awesome sponsors. Their genorosity made it possible for a $50/head dinner to cost us only $20/head, and that's something everybody surely appreciated after a long grueling week at the GDC.

If you get a chance it would really be classy to send a note to the folks below, each of whom were coordinating sponsorships via their organizations. We are truly gratified by their support!
  • smarshall@cmp.com Susan Marshall -- Susan works for CMP Media, the folks who put on the Game Developer's Conference. She's been enormously helpful over the years and was delighted to lend CMP's support again this year. We are truly, truly thankful.
  • Jenifer Niles -- Charles River Media is is the publisher of the suberb Gems series of books. Jenifer is one of their technical editors and all around awesome person, and she was fascinated to hear that we did these dinners last year. The CRM folks were generous in 2004 and again in 2005, and we are most appreciative...they are staunch supporters of the entire Game AI area of technology.
  • Veronica Naughton -- Microsoft was our third sponsor of the dinner and we greatly appreciate their support. One of their folks, Veronica Naughton, offered to assist last year and they were quick to support us again this year. Many thanks to Veronica and Microsoft both for supporting us.
