Steel Media, the company behind PocketGamer.biz and the Pocket Gamer Connects conferences, will host the eighth edition of the Pocket Gamer Mobile Games Awards in Cologne this August.
The Pocket Gamer Mobile Games Awards recognise the sector’s key players over the past 12 months, from the developers making great games to the publishers, tool makers, service providers, app stores, investors and more that contribute to building a platform for success.
Most of the awards are nominated and voted for by the whole industry, recognising the hard work of the teams and individuals that have shined over the last year. Nominations, when live, can be submitted via the Mobile Games Awards website; voting then follows on PocketGamer.biz itself.
A special Pocket Gamer People's Choice award is nominated and voted for by the players themselves.
Tickets to the ceremony (August 19th) are on sale.
For sponsorship details, please contact Steel Media CEO Chris James at chris.james@steelmedianetwork.com.
