By Adnews Staff
Electronics retailer Future Shop has signed-on as the title sponsor of the third annual Canadian Videogame Awards, which will take place in Vancouver on April 21. The event will be conducted in conjunction with Fan Expo Vancouver, a consumer show focusing on video games, comic books, science fiction, film, television, popular culture and online entertainment. The awards will also be broadcast nationally on specialty channel G4 Canada and on Citytv. "Our customers love video games and turn to us for the latest releases in entertainment, especially gaming, so it was an easy decision to support the CVAs and talented developer community within," said Sean Wilson, vice-president of entertainment at Future Shop. The Canadian Videogame Awards are produced by Reboot Communications and Greedy Productions.
