15 incredible conference tracks

The conference schedule spans both days with expert analysis and insight for all game industry professionals across both shows. 120 speakers will share over 55 hours of cutting edge content throughout the two days of the show.

  1. Pocket Gamer Connects presents eight conference tracks across both days, covering everything from trends to growth and Esports.
  2. Blockchain Connects adds a further seven tracks including trends, UX in blockchain games, fundraising for projects and more.

We’ll share more details about the conference tracks in the next few days.

Expo space

The showfloor will contain a dedicated Indie showcase area for known names and newcomers to showcase their talent to an industry audience. The Big Indie Zone is devoted to the work of indie teams and lone developers and it’s a vibrant and creative expo area for publishers looking to sign promising titles. It's always one of the most popular features at the show.
