ThinkingData and Yamaha Corporation join as Gold sponsors, while DynaComware, Diarkis, and Havok enter at Silver. The organizer is listed as Idea Co., Ltd. alongside CRI Middleware Co., Ltd. Seven outlets and events also join as media partners: Famitsu, 4Gamer.net, AUTOMATON, GAME Watch, Game Makers, GAME FUTURE SUMMIT, and GameBusiness.jp. GTMF 2026 runs Wednesday, December 2 at Knowledge Capital Congres Convention Center in Osaka and Tuesday, December 8 at Akihabara UDX in Tokyo, both from 9:30 to 18:30 with entry and exit permitted midway. Admission is free but advance registration is required, and an After Party at both venues will be detailed later.","whyItMatters":"The media partner roster now includes outlets and event brands that normally compete for the same developer audience, which points to the organizer trading exclusivity for reach in a forum that has run for two decades.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe second batch brings five companies, which the organizer splits across two sponsor tiers.
