  • NG18 Program (Screen)
    PROGRAM 2018 PROGRAM#nordicgame 2017 #nordicgame Welcome to Nordic Game 2018 It’s a great pleasure to welcome you to this fifteenth edition of Nordic Game, the only conference in the world with a dedicated focus on the entire Nordic games industry. Over the years we’ve evolved from a humble regional conference into a truly global industry event, as our vision of a strong, united games community and the values so many of us share - openness, innovation and diversity - have resonated with games industry professionals around the world, and they have been welcomed into our extended family. Of course, we continue to proudly celebrate the sheer quality and variety of games developed in the Nordic countries, and this year’s Nordic Game Awards (Thursday, 24 May from 18:00 in the Unreal Theatre) once again reflects the imagination and vitality of developers from the region we call home. However, our rapidly changing, interconnected industry doesn’t allow us to rest on our laurels, and our opening keynote (Wednesday, 23 May at 11:00 in the Unreal Theatre) brings together a panel of leaders from some of our most prominent Nordic studios to explore key challenges and opportunities for game developers moving forward. True to the many values we share with our extended global family, we’re also introducing a string of talks - the Impact sessions - that delve beyond the albeit important business and technical aspects of game development, to encourage all of us to think more deeply about the real impact of the games we create - and how we create them - on our world.
