Beyond Games is a new event and media initiative from the makers of PG Connects. It's a two-day conference focused on the future of games, transmedia, digital entertainment and the creative industries.
It's possible to receive a complimentary press pass to attend for the purposes of covering the event. This form will capture your credentials as part of that application process.
Beyond Games is new for 2021 and is the ideal knowledge- and contact-sharing event for people across the entertainment verticals. It connects the dots between games and film, technology, fashion, music and more. We encourage thought-leaders, strategists and decision-makers to attend, to discover what’s next for interactive technologies and to meet new partners with distinct visions to bring to your business.
Professionals who work in film, TV, music, fashion, sport, comics or any of the lifestyle and creative industries, will have noticed that everybody is talking about game technology at the moment. Why are Netflix hiring narrative designers? Why was Emperor Palpatine’s first Star Wars broadcast sent to the Fortnite community? At Beyond Games, we’ll explain all this and more. Those already in the game sector will see how games are one frontier of an expanding transmedia universe, and hear case studies at the event from companies who are working with the most exciting intellectual properties and breaking ground on new entertainment formats.
The Beyond Games conference will take place entirely online, using tools such as Zoom for talks and panels, and MeetToMatch as its dedicated contact-finding and meet-scheduling platform.
Tickets are on sale but we have a limited number of press passes and we welcome approved media outlets to attend for free while they are available.
There's just a small process to get through. Below you'll find the press application form for legitimate media outlets (eg print, online, YouTube). Once filled in, your details will be verified and, if eligible, you will be sent a link to register for your complimentary press pass.
PLEASE NOTE: Press accreditation will be provided to legitimate media outlets only. Application is not proof of registration.
