The aim of games:net Berlin Europe is to connect the Berlin Games and Interactive Media industries with other European countries. Focusing on the initiation of business relations, participants will benefit from a wide network of companies, institutions and talent incubators.
Based on the success of Berlin meets Poland and BerlinBalticNordic.net, medianet berlinbrandenburg started its initiative games:net Berlin Europe in October 2020. We will enhance the previous project by extending the existing network to the focus countries UK, France, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands and Switzerland, including digital entertainment areas such as animation and VFX.
The focus is on the initiation of business relations which are supposed to lead to sustainable cooperation. We intend to give participating companies the chance to directly get in touch with the markets of the countries as well as with the companies there, including organizers of the relevant business conferences and trade fairs, multipliers, publishers, developers, associations, investors and incubators. We also connect our participants to universities and cultural institutions.
Fields of action:
- Market Research and Development
- Business Matchmaking
- Industry Event Participation
- Funding Opportunities
- Knowledge Exchange and Transfer
- Digital Event Formats
The games industry is booming – not only in Berlin. As a location, however, the capital is an important hub for the development of the international network. Here, the games industry profits from creative game developers, publishers and a constantly growing indie scene.
games:net Berlin Europe as a new initiative will expand the activities of BerlinBalticNordic.net from autumn 2020. It is broadening the view and will connect the games industry throughout Europe.
The project is financed by the EUROPEAN REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT FUNDS and the State of Berlin, Senate Department of Economics, Energy, and Public Enterprises through its Program for Internationalization.
