Thanks for a great event

This Wednesday, Summer Pitch gathered promising game and digital startups for a dynamic pitching event, co-hosted by Sweden Game Arena in collaboration with Spotlight. Teams at various stages took the chance to present their latest ideas to a panel of investors, publishers, and industry experts—aiming to refine their concepts, gain valuable feedback, and spark new opportunities.

The panel featured leading voices from Landfall, Three Friends, Innersloth, Elda Entertainment, and Paradox Interactive: Rebecca Lautner, Johan Hermerén, Marcus Bromander, Sandra Neudinger, and Denis Ilecic.

“Really good arrangement with good pitches and nice people!” said Johan HermerĂ©n from the publisher Three Friends.
