Thank you for your interest in showing your indie game at the devcom NRW Indie Showcase 2023 – Hybrid Edition funded by the Premier of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany!
There will be two ways for you to participate:
- online only, with a virtual booth or
- hybrid, with a showcase on-site, and virtually in our event app.
In both options you will of course have access to unlimited matchmaking (online and/or on-site) and participation is for FREE!
We will select up to 20 playable game projects from all entries to be shown at the NRW Indie Showcase of devcom Developer Conference 2023 by invitation on-site. Furthermore, we will additionally select 10 playable projects to be presented in our virtual NRW Indie Showcase 2023.

devcom Developer Conference is an international event, so teams from all countries can apply. You can participate with any game if there is a playable prototype. Since we are committed to supporting newcomers, applications from newer studios and projects will be given preference. And as devcom has diversity at its core, we strongly encourage diverse teams to apply!
Thanks to the continued support of our partner, the Premier of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia, participation in this year’s NRW Indie Showcase 2023 is FREE for all selected teams!
