The deadline to send through suggestions for this year's 30 Under 30 is very close. It's just a week away, on Tuesday 20th, in fact.

Every year, MCV presents a list of the UK games market's rising stars, and the 2009 edition of 30 Under 30 is no different.

This year the list is sponsored by recruitment specialist OPM.

"Everybody here is excited about MCV's 30 Under 30 feature," said OPM head Kim Adcock.

"It’s great to celebrate the talent we have in this industry and give people something to smile about."

MCV will publish the 30 Under 30 feature in the issue dated October 30th.

The feature will once again highlight the achievements and exertions of the industry's younger execs working across the UK games industry. All sectors of the market will be covered – with the exception of games development. (A separate 30 Under 30 feature by our sister publication, Develop, will shine a spotlight on the creative community's hottest young talent in the New Year.)

For a nomination to be considered, it must include a hi-res photo of the candidate, their job title and role, age, plus a short explanation of why that person should be considered.

Nominations should be submitted to Michael.French@intentmedia.co.uk.

So if you haven't already, and want to nominate yourself, your staff, or a colleague - get cracking, and email us.
