The event runs on November 10 within MIGS26 and gives developers five-minute pitch sessions with expert panels, real-time and post-event feedback, and editorial coverage for the top three. It covers mobile, PC, and console games, and PG Connects attendees can get a 15% discount with MIGS.
The Montréal edition of The Big Indie Pitch is set for November 10 as part of MIGS26 and PG Connects Summit Montréal. Entries close October 27. It is sponsored by Xsolla and welcomes projects across mobile, PC, and console. Developers get five-minute sessions with expert panels, including Q&A, plus feedback during the event and later by email.
The top three entries receive editorial exposure through Steel Media outlets such as PocketGamer.biz. Other possible rewards include promotional packages, conference tickets, and event space at a later Pocket Gamer Connects. A single ticket also opens the full MIGS conference, described as Canada’s largest and longest-running B2B games event, with a 15% discount available for PG Connects attendees.
This pitch opportunity may give small and independent studios a route to expert feedback, media attention, and industry contacts. Its placement within MIGS26 could also strengthen Montréal’s role as a games hub, drawing attendees, students, and publishers together. For players, the resulting coverage and prizes may help lesser-known mobile, PC, and console projects reach wider audiences. The event’s overall societal effect is likely modest, but it could support creative labour and regional networking in the game sector.
