The event is getting ever closer, our guests in the upcoming May Meetup:
Teemu Kokkonen, FGJ
During the day Teemu Kokkonen is a game programmer and designer doing hyper casual games at Lightneer in Helsinki. At night, he is the president of the Finnish Game Jam organization, which organizes and supports the game jamming scene in Finland and promotes it globally.
Milla Pennanen, GMOF (Game Makers of Finland)
Milla is one of the founders of the Game Makers of Finland. With a strong background in labour union activities and her network with game and tech companies she is perfectly poised to stand up for the workers within the industry. As an enthusiastic gamer she, like all of us, wants to keep getting new games but not at the expense of the people who make them.
J. Häll, IGDA Finland
A cheeky nerd with a long history of pen & paper RPG's, LARPing and, naturally, video games. Spends most of his time teaching game design at Metropolia and as a game dev at Totally Valid Company. But once work is done it's time for the good stuff, being the chair of IGDA Finland.
An organisation that supports game devs, from students to veterans, across all of Finland and works constantly to keep up the unique community we have.
