We are very happy to present Danish Minister of Culture Uffe Elbæk as the opening speaker at this year’s Nordic Game Jam.
Minister of Culture Uffe Elbæk has himself been a creative entrepreneur. As the former head of the creative project manager education “Kaospiloterne”, he also has a lot of experience with managing creative projects and creative people. He acknowledges that the game development is an industry with great potential for growth and should be supported as other art forms, to ensure the development of high quality games.
The Danish Goverment supports the Danish game development industry through: Spilordningen, at the Danish Film Institute, the Nordic Game Support under Nordic Council Of Ministers and through the MEDIA+ Support under the European Union. Notable games to receive support are among others, Playdead’s “Limbo” & Press Play’s “Max & The Magic Marker”.
The opening speech from the Minister will take place at 18:00 in Aud1 on Friday, the 27th of January.
