The mission of this event is to bring investors, publishers and founders of game studios from Finland, Russia, Eastern Europe and Asia together to explore business opportunities. Leading industry experts will participate in panel discussions on topics like investments in games, publishing and new markets, as well as, Finland as a place to grow game companies. Panelists will share their views about trends in the market and discuss business opportunities.
The Finnish Game Day team will be selecting 15 game studios and startups to receive a package that includes the Finnish Game Day seminar, two standard tickets to the White Nights Conference, a mini-stand in the Play Finland area to promote your games and company, and a networking boat tour along the Neva River and canals all for 200EUR + VAT.

For those who can’t make it to St. Petersburg, Devs.tv will provide a live stream of the FGD19 panel discussions that will be shown at the Helsinki Games Factory.
May's sponsor is PlayStack, a publisher founded on the belief that even the greatest developers need support in order to create their best work. PlayStack can offer that support in three key ways; end-to-end funding, publishing expertise, and tech to build a strong gamer audience and community.
It goes without saying that folks from PlayStack will be present at the gathering on May 14th and scouting for good teams who believe they have the next great thing.
With this in mind, we shall do our best to accommodate as many teams as possible in this month’s demo corner. That said, we may need to cut teams if the list gets too long, especially if there are a number of demos that require lots of space. Otherwise registration ends Sunday, May 12th.
The Finnish chapter of International Game Developers Association.
