Over the past year, I have been very privledged to meet many creative, passionate and visionary thinkers, so I am thrilled to be moderating Transmedia Day at Nordic Game on May 23rd. In its 9th year, Nordic Game has a stellar history and I am honoured to be part of it.

I am looking forward to working with Doug Richard, entrepreneur, Dragon, and School for Startups founder. Doug is quite literally changing the world through his education programmes. I completly agree, that entrepreneurship can be taught and can be learned.

There is no reason why creatives cannot be successful in business and reap the rewards of their talents. The romantic notion that the starving artist is more creative, is a myth and it’s time we put it to bed for good. Business is not a bad word!

On Transmedia Day, we will be talking about financing, co-production and emerging trends. We have a group of 70+ passionate, transmedia producers, partners and speakers joining us and I know it is going to be an amazing experience.

Here’s what we will be doing:

12:30 Registration starts

18:30 We gather for an informal dinner before joining the other conference participants at Slagthuset for Nordic Game’s Indie Night

Transmedia Day is produced by Nordic Game in co-operation with Nordisk Film & TV Fond, Norsk filminstitutt, Det danske filminstitut, Svenska filminstitutet, Kulturkraft Syd, Canadian Embassy in Sweden and The Nordic MEDIA Desks. Big thanks to Cecilie for the invitation and for organising such a fantastic event.

If you would like to bring Transmedia Day with you for the rest of the year; why not sign up to our Meetup. Let’s bring this conversation to as many as we can, share our learning and our experience.

See you in Malmo soon!
