Introducing PitchPlay

Present to our expert panel.
Gain investment…
…and prizes worth AED55,000

We’re delighted to debut PitchPlay at the Dubai GameExpo Summit powered by PG Connects.

PitchPlay is a new event, produced in partnership with DMCC and part of the Investment Summit, offering a great opportunity for game entrepreneurs – whether that’s developers, game tech studios, tool makers, service companies – to pitch for investment from a panel of experts as part of a dedicated 60-minute session that will showcase the entrepreneurial spirit of Dubai.

The set up is as follows:

• PitchPlay takes place at the end of the Investment Summit, Day 1 of Dubai GameExpo Summit powered by PG Connects

• Selected pitchers will have 4 minutes on stage to pitch their project/company

• The panel of investors will then have 5 minutes for questions

• Once all applicants have pitched, investors consider the pitches, privately, immediately after the PitchPlay session

• The PitchPlay winners are then announced during Day 2 of Dubai GameExpo Summit

• All participating pitchers must apply for consideration in advance of the session – please use the button below to access the submission form

• Investment and prizes – including a DMCC Gaming Centre Package worth AED30,000 and a AED25,000 Steel Media promotional package – will be detailed in the run-up to the session

**PitchPlay 2025 is scheduled for May 7, 16:45–17:45**
(Note: time subject to slight change; final timings, including order of pitching, will be confirmed with selected participants)

Deadline for applications: April 22, 23:59
