Update: Follow the NGDC’s second season at discovery-contest.nordicgame.com!

As we’re getting closer to Nordic Game 2018, we’re also getting closer to the season two grand finals of the Nordic Game Discovery Contest, taking place during the conference on 23-25 May.

There are still a couple of NGDC qualifying rounds left on the tour plan but by the time of the finals, 16 game studios will be present at NG18 to battle in live pitch rounds and exhibit their games in the Discovery Contest Finalist Expo.

As a Nordic Game 2018 attendee, you can also play a role in deciding this NGDC season’s champion, as you’ll be able to play all the games on show and vote for your favorites.

You can already follow each NGDC qualifying stage and learn more about the winners with in-depth finalist videos on the NGDC website – discovery-contest.nordicgame.com.

And if you’re a developer and you’ve made a game which deserves to be discovered, there are still plenty of chances for taking one of the remaining finalist seats – including the wild card submission process, which we’ll be announcing very soon. So stay tuned!

About Appodeal
Appodeal was founded by app publishers for app publishers. Appodeal was originally created in 2011 as an in-house ad mediation solution for Alfa Production, a mobile apps publishing company with a monthly audience of 4M active users across all apps.

After experimenting with most of the ad networks, mediators, and app monetization tools on the market to monetize Alfa’s apps, founder & CEO Pavel Golubev was surprised to learn their in-house publisher-centric ad mediation platform actually performed the best — increasing their apps’ ad revenue by an impressive ~270{dbb3cda40e8ee6f6e2facf7540b719f895331d48c7dff096aeb64822bb190b9e}.

Golubev then realized that all mobile ad tools simply put the advertisers’ interests first, not the publishers. As a result, he decided to launch Appodeal to the public in 2015 — bringing the power back to the mobile app publishers.

Thanks to its innovative publisher-centric ad marketplace where ad networks compete against each other in real-time for every ad impression, Appodeal has significantly increased ad revenue for app publishers and has been growing rapidly ever since.

About Nordic Game Ventures
Nordic Game Ventures aims to grow great companies and secure future jobs while profiting from the greatest Nordic export industry success in ages, the games industry. Nordic Game Ventures is founded by ten Nordic games entrepreneurs and gamer entrepreneurs from Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden.
