As we’re gearing up for next year’s Nordic Game conference, 18-20 May 2016, now’s the perfect time to sit back and enjoy some of the many highlights from last spring’s show.
Held on 20-22 May 2015 and dubbed “The Blueshift Edition”, NG15 had a string of great speakers talking about how to navigate an expanding industry. If you were too busy at the conference to see them all, here’s your chance. And if you for some weird reason didn’t attend NG15, we hope this glimpse of what Nordic Game is all about will convince you to join us for NG16 – we have some great stuff in the making for next year’s show. Stay tuned for more info very soon.
Please see session/speaker details (by day, time and title) for each of the NG15 videos below here.
Enjoy the show!
