The Pocket Gamer Connects London 2018 schedule is live

And it's our biggest, baddest Connects yet

The Pocket Gamer Connects London 2018 schedule is live

Just under two weeks to go to our fifth Pocket Connects London (January 22nd to 23rd).

About time we shared our toys and let you know what's going on, content wise. And we now have, as you'll see from the conference schedule now online.

Bigger and better

At over 160 speakers and 12 tracks running in three auditoria, plus workshops and copious amounts of fringe activity for PGC alone this represents our biggest PG Connects yet – insightful keynotes, perceptive solo presentations, lively panels, relaxed fireside chats, we have over 100 options to choose from.

Throw in everything else we're doing (see below) and we have the biggest Connects conference, like, ever.

There's still time to join the fun (and you can grab a cheeky 10 per cent off by using code PGBIZ10).
