Portal announced as sponsor of the drawing competition at this year’s MCV/DEVELOP Awards

MCV/DEVELOP has announced Portal as the sponsor of the drawing competition at the MCV/DEVELOP Awards 2026.

The MCV/DEVELOP Awards have been around for over 20 years, and aim to recognise the successes of the UK games industry in every area that it excels, from innovations in game creation to accomplishments in recruitment, PR, retail and the media. They’re a key industry event in the games calendar, and bring together its exceptionally talented people for a night of celebration and enjoyment.

Joshua Heaton, Founder and Creative Director, said: 

“MCV has long been a cornerstone of the games industry, championing hard work, innovation, and creativity, values that Portal shares and is proud to stand alongside.

We’re delighted to be partnering with MCV for the fourth year at the 2026 MCV Awards. It’s vital to empower and celebrate the incredible talent across the entire industry, from small indie studios to global AAA powerhouses, as well as the essential supporting services like PR and creative agencies.

The industry is vast and diverse, but MCV plays a unique role in bringing everyone together, while also raising funds for charities that support our wider community. Being recognised at this year’s event is a significant moment for our team and marks an important milestone in our journey as a business.”
