Game Pitching Masterclass with Jon Cartwright
We've got another amazing workshop coming up in a couple of weeks for WA game developers!

Across two online sessions in September, Jon Cartwright will be joining us to talk all things pitching, from putting together a strong pitch deck and talking about your game in a way that gets people interested, through to handling publisher/investor meetings and following up afterwards.

The second session will also give you the chance to pitch your game directly to Jon and get feedback on your deck and presentation.

Friday, September 4 AND 18 between 12-5pm AWST
Online via the WAGIC Discord
$20
Strictly limited to 20 WA game developers

If you've applied for PlayNow during , I recommend signing up for this one before spots fill up! We intentionally scheduled the workshop ahead of PlayNow so you'll have time to work on your pitch, get feedback from Jon, and make any final changes before sitting down with publishers and investors in October.
