  • Improve internationalisation of SME’s within gaming industries in the BSR region
  • Experiment with formats for informal networking in a digital set up and create value of digital networking practices in precarious times, and thus contribute to knowledge exchange within digitization practices in the cultural and creative industries.

The main objective is to provide SME’s and game developers with access to inspiration for new ideas, methods and technologies as well as provide an opportunity for matchmaking and professional exchange. Therefore, the international "Meet'N Match" event is planned as a post event to the one-day conference “Digital Kids Today”.

Meet'N Match provides a platform for game developers and other professionals within the gaming industry across the Baltic Sea Region to meet and find potential future business partners and create an international network. Also, the objectives are to provide the possibility for network and contact building, brand visibility and showcasing new projects or developments, as participants are expected to pitch projects as part of the event.
