GAMA -- Minding the Business of Games™

The Game Manufacturers Association (GAMA) is the non-profit trade organization dedicated to serving the tabletop game industry. GAMA strengthens and supports all industry professionals by advancing their interests, providing educational programs and opportunities, and promoting our unique form of quality social entertainment. Led by publishers and manufacturers, GAMA promotes the interests of all persons involved in the commerce of games and game-related products.

Every year the game industry does business at the GAMA Trade Show, which is the industry's biggest and longest-running trade event. At the Origins Game Fair hosted by GAMA, over 15,000 people learn, play, and buy. And the rest of the year, GAMA promotes the social game industry with partnerships and trade show appearances throughout the country.
