In two weeks, NG24 Spring will take place in Malmö. The conference programme is starting to fill up, with more than 150 speakers already confirmed. They will be discussing specific topics in two-person conversations, and speaking on panels about current gaming issues such as venture funding or growing consumer expectations.
As the 20th anniversary edition of Nordic Game, NG24 Spring, 21 to 24 May in Malmö, Sweden, draws closer, the organizers have announced that more than 150 speakers have been lined up for the show. More than 2500 participants have already registered for NG24 Spring.
The Nordic Game Conversations will feature two experts sharing their expertise. Adam Boyes and Alexander Bergendahl delve into the challenges of preserving legacy while fostering innovation in the midst of an industry recession. Rami Ismail meets Casey Al-Kaisy for a conversation about our industry and how we can improve.
