Pocket Gamer Connects returns to Helsinki on October 7–8, 2025, at Wanha Satama. This two-day event is a cornerstone of Finnish Games Week, and one of the most important international gatherings in our industry calendar.

Pocket Gamer Connects Helsinki will bring together 1,500+ games industry professionals for unmatched networking, expert insights, and meaningful collaboration. The event boasts a high-quality crowd, with 70% of attendees being game developers and half of them founders or C-level leaders. The powerful MeetToMatch platform ensures you can schedule meetings with key decision-makers in advance.

The conference features 150+ speakers covering a wide range of topics, from mobile and PC/console development to XR, web3, and AI. True to the spirit of our global games community, the event blends professional depth with a friendly, informal atmosphere.

Attendees can also take part in curated side events like Investor Connector, Publisher SpeedMatch, The Very Big Indie Pitch, and the legendary Global Connects Party—all designed to support new connections and business opportunities.
