Networking opportunities

Firstly, there’s a handy Pitch & Match system for registered attendees to set up meetings.

Then there’s the Investor SpeedMatch and Publisher SpeedMatch that connects developers with publishers and investors.

Not part of the SpeedMatch system? Stick around the event and for the afterparty and network to your heart’s content, you never know who you might bump into.

And you can always pop by the Indie Showcase, which offers an exclusive and vibrant area dedicated to indie developers showing off their latest games.

Oh, and if you get a ticket to Pocket Gamer Connects London 2017, you’ll also get a free pass to our sister-conference VR Connects, which takes place at the same venue!

That’s two conferences for the price of one!

So what are you waiting for? There’s less than a month to go to sign up and meet some of the most influential people in the games business!
