POCKET GAMER CONNECTS 2023: THE MAD TAKE OVER

We love what we do, and we work hard to stay at the top of our game. And sometimes this means getting the opportunity to leave our desks and attend leading mobile gaming industry conferences, like Pocket Gamer Connects 2023.

This year Product Madness saw Pocket Gamer Connects as the perfect opportunity to meet like-minded people and developers, show them what we do, and encourage them to join our growing team (as well as to get inspired by all the great talks and cool stuff at PGC, obviously).

Pocket Gamer Connects is the top international conference series for the global games industry, and the recent London event - held at The Brewery - meant we got to mingle and chat with over 2000 industry professionals, while admiring the various exhibits. Attendees got the chance to hear any of 200 speakers, which this year we’re proud to say included some of our very own.

Product Madness was delighted to feature on a number of topics devoted to just a few of our specialist subjects:

• Company Culture - Workplace Connection & Community  - with Meng Jiang, Head of Learning and Development, Martyn Swinkels, Senior Director, Global Employee Experience & People Ops, and Elaine Obeng, Global Studio Experience Lead
• Show Me The Money - Funding EarlyStage Gaming - with Zvika Pakula, VP Strategy & Business Development
• Game Dev Stories - What Every Developer Needs To Know Before Joining The Games Industry - with Maya Hofree, VP of New Games
• The Developer Toolkit - The Gaming Roadmap to 2030: what new tech, trends & models do we need to prepare for? - with Liam Baloh, Software Developer
• LiveOp Landscape - 4 LiveOps Fundamentals for Building a great LiveOps Department - with Alex Haley, Principle GamesOps Manager
• The Growth Track - Fireside Chat: In The Sandbox With… -  Piyush Mishra, Head of Growth Marketing
   

We always enjoy meeting new people and sharing knowledge with our industry peers. We had a fantastic time at Pocket Gamer Connects 2023 and can’t wait for the next one!
