The Nordic Game Conference is one of the leading game conferences in Europe, held in Malmö, Sweden. This year, the conference will again take place fully digital with its Spring Edition on May 26-28 and a fall edition in November.

The conference will feature talks and panels by international industry experts like Mikael Kasurinen and Brooke Maggs (both from Remedy Entertainment), Tom Heaton (Supermassive Games), Geoffrey Zatkin (Extra Credits) or Jesper Juul (Royal Danish Academy). Also, there will be a digital Publisher Market, where pitch-ready development teams can meet investors and publishers and a wide host of networking and social events on the conference’s Discord server.
