Games Industry Lunch Debate #4
Be part of history!
From indie game studios to industry giants: Sweden always has been a videogame country. Studios like DICE (Battlefield), Mojang (Minecraft) and Dennaton (Hotline Miami) marked the Swedish history of gaming with their successes. You can be the next Swedish Success Story!
Let's help each other!
Learn about how an investment looks like within the games industry. What are the risks and benefits? What does an investor think when investing in a game studio? And how does the perspective look from the company seeking investment? Grab some advice from top actors of the Swedish games industry!
We will discuss these questions during an in-person Lunch Debate at Minc. This event will be split between a presentation and a Q&A session with our guests.
Discover this situation from both sides
Jenny Strömberg, coach at Minc, chairwoman of the board at Studybee and advisor at Ecombooster will exchange with Robin Hjelte, studio manager at Frictional Games about investment and various advice for aspiring game studios. You will have the opportunity to learn about the mindset of each party, from the perspective of an investor and from that of a developer!
About Robin

It all began when he and a group of friends decided to start their own studio when they studied Media Technology: Digital Games at Blekinge Institute of Technology. Their first larger game title was AER Memories of Old, and in the process of developing the game, they decided to seek venture capital to finance the final development and launch.
