Annual celebration of the best games development talent returns on Wednesday, July 13th

Nominations now open for Develop Awards 2016

The Develop Awards return this July – and we’ve just opened the call for nominations.

This is your chance to be recognised among the best creators and innovators in games development from the UK and Europe, as well as the global firms that are instrumental to producing the games that are made in these regions.

The awards ceremony will be held at the Brighton Hilton Metropole on Wednesday, July 13th during Develop: Brighton 2016. To book your ticket now, contact Georgia via gblake@nbmedia.com.

There are 20 awards this year, organised into four simple categories: Creativity, Tech & Services, Studio and Special Awards. Find out how to nominate here.

As always, our prestigious Development Legend will be given to an esteemed icon that has pioneered some of the industry’s biggest innovations. The winner will be selected by the Develop Team and announced ahead of the event. 

The full list of categories – and a guide on how to enter – can be found here.

Think you deserve a Develop Award? Check which ones you’re elligible for, then send your 350-word pitch to developawards@nbmedia.com before 5pm UK time on Wednesday, April 13th.

Once submissions are sent in, they will be vetted by the Develop Team and the finalists will be announced in a few months.
