Kiss is once again looking for new games to sign at next month’s Interface.
The digital distribution management specialist attended the first Interface earlier this year, and signed a number of titles from indie developers showcasing their products at the event.
“Interface proved to be an effective way for Kiss to meet a wide section of developers across multiple platforms and genres in one location over a short period of time,” said head of marketing at Kiss, Dave Clark.
“The format ensured that both parties had to be quick and efficient in getting across their message. From there Kiss were able to select a number of games we wanted to move forward with, with a view to publishing them.
“This year, Kiss are expecting to discover yet more innovative and fresh products which we can bring to the market.”
Kiss joins a number of other publishers, including Channel 4’s All 4 Games, 505 Games and Sold Out who are all looking for new signings at Interface.
Brought to you by MCV and Develop, Interface will take place on Thursday November 12th at St Mary’s Church, near Baker Street and Marylebone Tube/Train stations.
The interactive content marketplace, which combines funding advice, private pitching, conference sessions, games showcasing and more, returns after a successful May debut which attracted some 300 games professionals.
Interface is structured to be as affordable as possible for games businesses of all sizes, with the basic indie expo pass free and indie tickets for the meeting system (which guarantees you a day’s schedule of private meetings with publishers looking to sign new games) priced at £59 +VAT. Indie game expo spaces are £199 + VAT and include involvement in the meeting system.
For publishers and larger studios, an expo pass is £20 + VAT, and the meeting system rate is £149 + VAT. Publishers looking to host meetings for the day pay £500 + VAT.
The Interface Meeting System is at the heart of the day, with private meetings between delegates and hosts. NewBay Media take all the details of attendees and hosts and matchmake them, based on requirements and needs.
Plus there’s a conference and public expo running throughout the day. Further speakers will be announced over the next couple of weeks.
