Big Indie Pitch during Slush 2014 sponsored by GetSocial

Helsinki, Finland. In a fit of individuality, the Finnish capital has foregone the Scandinavian tradition of simply being an effective setting for grim murder mysteries to become the capital of mobile gaming.

So what better place is there for the chance to host another now legendary Big Indie Pitch, sponsored by GetSocial, to round off the year? Taking place on the afternoon of Monday 17 November, developers will have their chance to prove their offering is Seriously the Next Game to go Supercell.

Our unique speed dating format gives each developer 3 minutes with each panel of experts, meaning entrants will get real feedback from the event. The winner will also be covered in Pocket Gamer as well as receiving thousands of dollars in advertising on Steel Media, making this a great chance to get your game up in lights.

number of engaging social tools. These tools have been developed to tap into the
players social graph to build new ways to develop communities and relationships
with minimal time and resources from the developer.
By opening up multi-communication channels across various games of a
developer’s portfolio, it is possible to re-activate gamers, improve virality and
show what friends are doing and buying in their favorite games. GetSocial is
creating loyalty and brand awareness that enables developers to optimize their
freemium model and successfully build meaningful relationships.
