She Got Game opens a new application round
Pro Helvetia's official call invites emerging professional game developers who identify as women to apply for the latest She Got Game mentoring programme. The official post says eligible applicants can include developers or studios whose relevant training or legal registration dates back less than seven years.
The call covers practitioners based in regions served by Pro Helvetia's liaison offices, including West, Central, East and Southern Africa. A Music In Africa report dated August 13 independently lists the African regions and the September 1, 2026 application deadline.
What the programme offers
Pro Helvetia says the programme includes one-to-one online mentorship with industry experts, online lectures, a community of emerging women developers, project visibility, a stipend and a possible opportunity to take part in an international game design festival.
The official call presents She Got Game as an equal-opportunity and leadership programme for the international game industry. It does not promise selection, funding beyond the stated programme support, a publishing deal, employment or commercial success.
Application boundary
Applicants should use the official Pro Helvetia links for the correct route based on whether they have a connection to Switzerland or live in a liaison-office region. The official post sets the deadline at September 1, 2026. AfroStream does not collect applications and has not independently assessed applicant eligibility.
AfroStream checked the official Pro Helvetia call and the dated Music In Africa report on August 20, 2026. No participant selection or outcome is claimed.
