Welcome to
The Nordic Conference of Serious Games
February 28-29, 2008
University of Jyväskylä, Finland.
Nordic countries have versatile expertise for cross-sector excellence in the emerging field of Serious Games. As part of interactive media industry this field focuses on designing and using digital games for real-life purposes such as education, health care, safety, public policy, and business development. The Nordic Conference for Serious Games invites all actors, academic, public as well as commercial, to gather to explore the Nordic know-how in the area.
The conference aims to create a multi-disciplinary forum where actors from academia as well as industry and a multitude of end-user organizations come together to share experiences, ideas and knowledge. In addition to the main conference we will organize a young scientist workshop for doctoral students. The young scientist workshop will consist of theme introductions of experts on the conference topics as well as the presentations of young scientists on their research.
