Pocket Gamer Connects Toronto 2022

The leading mobile gaming industry conference, Pocket Gamer Connects, goes live in Toronto in July 2022. This is our first conference in the city and we're excited to be bringing the roadshow here for the first time. After events in London UK and Seattle US in 2022, our next stop will be Ontario Province where we will connect, inform and entertain the local and international games industry community.

Some 750 attendees from the games industry will gather in Toronto in July to network, discover, pitch and learn from 120 of the world’s leading authorities.

You will join a true cross-section of the games industry, from fresh-faced indie designers to experienced CEOs and investors. And although our roots are in mobile, the conference will take in everything: Android and iOS, PC and console, blockchain, VR/AR and more will be covered, across multiple track rooms. Our speakers and panellists will share their expert insight into design and development, monetisation and growth, new technologies, company culture and loads more.
