London is one of the most diverse, vibrant and creative cities on the planet. Its games and interactive entertainment sector is no different, representing a true convergence of talent, art, creativity and culture.
Games London has one mission: to make London the games capital of the world.
We do this with a year-round programme of support for local businesses, engagement with investors and funders via inbound and outbound trade missions, and delivery of the world’s biggest games festival.
We fulfil our mission with a programme of business and cultural work that includes:
When we first started out we didn’t really know anyone in the industry and Games London was inclusive and welcoming. It introduced us to many people in the sector, some of whom went on to be investors in Loveshark. They helped us to build a network when it mattered most: right at the beginning. A vital resource for the early stage games community in London.
Games London’s Slush trips made a significant difference to Sensible Object – networking us with international investors who supported our growth and eventual exit.
Games London has been invaluable in bringing Flavourworks to a wider international market. The games finance market and investor trips helped us meet more potential investors and partners in a week than we would have in a whole year of old-fashioned networking.
