Barcelona’s Powerful Gaming Sector
It’s only natural that Pocket Gamer Connects is coming to Barcelona, a gaming powerhouse with a thriving ecosystem.
The city is home to 40% of the world’s leading video game companies, with more than 205 gaming companies and over 4,000 employees driving the industry forward. Barcelona leads the EU in the number of gaming projects and investments received, ranks second in job creation, and is recognised as the second-favourite European hub for startup founders.
