The most important aspect of any b2b event is who you will meet and do business with. Deals are done, and friendships are made. So we put networking at the heart of the conference – the clue's in the name!

Of course, the schedule will be packed with our trademark focused seminars. But the event is called Connects because that’s what we help you do: connect with the whole industry, from new indie studios to the media, international investors, publishers, and service providers.

Unlike other event organisers, we offer the MeetToMatch meeting platform free to all delegates, so you can find that perfect contact and arrange to meet them in person in our dedicated meeting zones. Plus, there'll be post-conference networking and a few fringe events to further help put people together.

Our fringe events are back! We'll be running curated sessions for developers, publishers and investors to connect live at the venue. These curated sessions pair mobile, PC, and console developers with publishers and investors in a series of meetings.

These short, sharp encounters enable first contact for you to follow up with a longer meeting if you find a potential partner. It’s a shop window for devs to display their wares and a pipeline of prospects for anyone looking to sign up-and-coming talent.

These activities require sign-up in advance because space is very limited. Once you have your ticket, look out for the application forms on the official site.

And, for indie developers, there are additional specific opportunities…

Indie devs are the lifeblood of the games industry and PG Connects champions their work. The show floor has a dedicated Big Indie Zone for known names and newcomers alike to display their talent to the audience. This is a vibrant and varied expo area for publishers looking to sign promising titles. In order to support the community, we always keep a few tables in reserve to give away free to deserving developers – check out the official site for details of how to apply.

And, of course, our popular Very Big Indie Pitch will be back in force with indie devs competing to impress a panel of expert judges. The pitching competition is open to mobile, PC, console developers this year.

The winners could walk away with prizes and online marketing worth thousands of dollars, coverage on the site, useful feedback, plus the warm glow of celebration. It's also a chance to sit down with the most experienced judges in the business.

These activities require sign-up in advance because space is very limited. Once you have your ticket, look out for the pitch application forms the PGC Summit Canary Islands site.
