The TIGA Games Industry Awards 2025 – which celebrate game developers, educators, technology and service providers – couldn’t take place without the generous support of our sponsors.
This year’s presentation ceremony will take place on Tuesday November 4th at the prestigious Hurlingham Club, and we’re delighted to welcome Testronic as a Bronze sponsor.
Our thanks to Testronic – and a reminder that a limited number of additional sponsorship opportunities are also available. To find out more email info@tiga.org.
