There are up to 20 places available for a free workshop to be held in Liverpool in mid-December that will provide better insight into how to work with Sony, how to pitch to games publishers, a look at user centred design, and a peek at some new industry audience research.

The final stage of the workshop will see companies pitch their ideas to a panel of Sony executives and Executive Producers. This panel will select 5 companies to receive £10,000 to prototype their game over the first 3 months of 2009. These ideas will then be shown to Sony Computer Entertainment Europe with the possibility of going into full production.
