Can you afford not to join us for PG Connects London 2027?
TRULY ESSENTIAL Q1 GLOBAL GAMES INDUSTRY CONFERENCE
With the greatest respect: if you work in the games industry and you're not starting your year by attending PG Connects London… you may need to re-evaluate your business life choices.
Our UK event isn't about the numbers – although 3,000 attendees, 1,600 companies, 300 speakers, 70 countries, 60+ content hours are worth highlighting – but rather the indisputable, invaluable industry function it serves.
It's. All. About. Connections
The clue's in the name. Reuniting with friends or former colleagues – sometimes they're both. Meeting brilliant new minds that spark captivating conversations. Sitting down with soon-to-be business partners. Absorbing insights to bring to your team back in the office. Securing face-to-face time with that developer / publisher / investor / service / platform / tools provider / media agency / recruiter / operator / journalist you've been trying to link up with for months.
We built – and named – our event series from this core concept. And London takes the concept 'next level'.
Designed to boost business
This isn't an anonymous business card grabfest. You're securing meaningful connections that make a difference, whether that's in track sessions, on the expo floor, during fringe sessions, at our post-conference activity, or even when queueing for coffee.
Year, after year, after year we bring the games industry together and strive to deliver a balance between high networking intensity and strong content suitability that ensures genuine business utility. It's weaved into every decision. Take our choice of venues: quirky, sure, but also deliberately designed to amplify this very balance.
January blues? Tsk…
The timing helps, too. You start your conversation in London, check in on things in San Francisco, keep the momentum going in Barcelona, and conclude the deal in Helsinki.
Okay, we know that's not how real business works. But the broader point remains: PGC London is your springboard to the year ahead, the rejuvenating Q1 kick to counter the preceding Q4 crunch.
It's no happy coincidence that our London attendees' social wrap-ups state that they return to the office fully re-energised, inspired, hopeful, ready to face the months of work that lie ahead – and having made a tonne more contacts.
The whole ecosystem
You're not focused on mobile, though? Great; neither are our delegates. PG Connects may have started in 2014 as a smartphone-focused conference – and some of our one-day summits do remain so – but London has long been welcoming professionals from across the games ecosystem: mobile, PC, Consoles, AI, cross-media, global app economy and more are all featured, all at home.
That's why you're just as likely to bump into the likes of Nintendo, EA, Xbox, Take-Two Interactive, Epic Games, Roblox, Bandai Namco, Ubisoft, NC, Square Enix, Sega, Capcom as you are Tencent, NetEase, Supercell, Playrix, Scopely, Tilting Point, King, Krafton, Com2uS, Gameloft, Netmarble, FunPlus.
TL;DR?
Fair. We're all busy.
Here's the gist: if you work in the games sector, it doesn't make a lot of business sense to miss two days packed tighter than Ikea furniture with networking, discovering, pitching, dealing, discussing, and learning alongside a fully engaged who's who of the global games industry, right at the heart of one of the world's greatest capitals.
