Ever wondered how games get funded? Creare Capital are on a mission to help.

They have built an app for the creative industries to better access finance and are looking to revolutionise game developers' access to capital.

They are currently making improvements and upgrades to the app and they are looking for feedback to ensure that the platform is built to serve your funding needs. This is your chance to get involved and co-design the platform to tailour it to your specific requirements.

We want to help our community of devs better understand how to get access to funding for their games and so have partnered with Creare to bring you a workshop that is geared towards helping you to understand the funding landscape and getting funding ready, as well as to help them build the best product they can to better support game devs!

Creare Capital will help us settle in with a brief icebreaker and then move into an introductory talk. We will then move on to a panel with Finance and Creative professionals, where they can share their expertise.

Come along and get involved to learn about games funding, and shape the future of access to capital for the creative industries!
