SwissGames is opening their call for application for the delegation to gamescom 2025 in Cologne as well as for the mentoring programme She Got Game. The deadlines are in January for gamescom and in December for She Got Game. For the latter, women from outside Switzerland can apply as well.

SwissGames has opened to calls to be part of the Swiss delegation for different games projects. The gamescom 2025 call has a deadline until 10 January 2025. Applicants can send in their game to be a participant in the SwissGames delegation to Cologne to showcase their projects to industry professionals in the business area. Valid for application are “those game designers who have completed their professional training in a relevant field or who founded a company (as a legal entity) less than seven years ago”, with a connection to Switzerland in some way. See here for all details.

The mentoring programme She Got Game is also looking for participants. Applications are accepted until 1 December 2024. The same game developer definition as above applies, plus She Got Game is aimed at cis and trans women specifically. Applicants for She Got Game do not need a specific connection to Switzerland, but there are different application methods if so. Here is the application for Swiss applicants, here for those from outside the Federation.
