October 26th 2019

DevCon Tampere is a one-day conference for game developers, researchers & students to share their most painful, joyful and brutally honest experiences related to game development. No marketing, no pitching, no service providers, no money-talk, no bullshit. All game talk.

This year our theme is: Solutions! Last year we covered a lot of “do’s and don’ts” and lessons learned the hard way. This year we’ll have more of that and hopefully some helpful information on what companies and our community can do to grow together.

WHEN: Saturday 26th of October from 10am to 5pm
WHERE: Vapriikki auditorium, Alaverstaanraitti 5, 33101 Tampere
WHY: Our goal is to be a forum for sharing honest game development experience, and for bringing Tampere based developers, students and researchers closer together in a relaxed atmosphere.

Thanks to our sponsors we can offer a ticket price where just the food and drinks are much more valuable than the ticket for the whole day!
