Games Consortium pilot initiative
NESTA is piloting an initiative that will help developers to publish their games direct to market. 'The Games Consortium' is looking for developers to come together to form a publisher.
The Games Consortium is a ground-breaking new video game and interactive entertainment consortium that will allow independent games developers to exploit their games through digital distribution.
The Consortium, which has the support of the trade associations UKIE and TIGA, is being seed-funded by NESTA but is expected to be self-sustaining after 18 months.
It is seeking the involvement of up to eight UK independent developers working in social, mobile and traditional gaming to help build the consortium which will be owned by the developer members.

Expressions of interest from independent games developers are invited by 12 noon on 14th February 2011.
