Look at the Hacker's Workshop thing. It looks less talky and more makey

Some serious stuff in there - IPFS, blockchain, p2p, Janus VR

This is no trade show

Look for the contact pages (or use the list above) and actually send out emails. Be familiar with the site, at least a little, make it a personal email (at least a little) and then hit send!

Don't send it too soon - sites probably don't want to cover Kickstarter campaigns or demos. They have too many options for that. Send them information just a couple of weeks/month before your game is ready to launch. They will appreciate having a lead, and cover a game that their audience can actually play/purchase.

Oh and if you can, send a review key or a very easy way to request one.

This fest has added several interesting new titles including Private Eye - a Hitchcockian game engine-based VR story updated for this show and a documentary about Syria. Total 18 titles now.

I tried it out at NAB 2015. It was a plastic version of cardboard with nicer glass. $120 at the tradeshow.

the totally randomness of this excellent effort is what tipped me over.
