MCV/DEVELOP News, events, research and jobs from the games industry
The Interactive Futures Indie Investor Pitch is back for 2021, taking place virtually during the Interactive Futures virtual event next week (Tuesday February 16-20).
The sessions – which are free – will give indie developers the opportunity to pitch to investors, publishers and advisors via hosted ‘match-made’ video call meetings.
The assembled investors, publishers and advisors, and their area(s) of interest & expertise include:-
Andy Payne (The Producers, Just Flight, Ukie) – General advice & investment
Chris Murphy (Square Enix Collective) – PC & Console games
Josh Garrity (Sold Out) – Console, PC, Apple Arcade games
Lauren Hunter (Square Enix Collective) – PC & Console games
Stuart Dinsey (Curve Digital, Ukie) – PC and console games / studio or IP acquisitions
The meetings will take place in a ‘speed dating’ format, with each participating indie developer having up to three 20-minute meetings with the individual investors/publishers/advisors of their choosing (subject to availability).
