Shuhei Yoshida to receive the BIG conference honorary award
The Bilbao International Games Conference (BIG Conference) has announced they’ll be granting industry legend and Sony Interactive Entertainment executive Shuhei Yoshida an honorary award. Yoshida will join BIG Conference’s co-director Antonio Santo for a chat on Saturday, November 19, at noon to discuss several topics during the award ceremony.
This prize is meant to pay tribute to an industry icon that helped establish the PlayStation brand when he joined the team responsible to design Sony’s first home console in 1993. Yoshida has always been a key figure for PlayStation until he took the role of President of SIE Worldwide Studios, then called Sony Computer Entertainment, a position he held from 2008 to 2019. Today, Shuhei Yoshida still enjoys his passion for video games working closely with indie developers all over the world, focusing on giving them advice and encouraging them to explore new and unexpected experiences that will help the gaming industry push its limits.
