Mittweida Start-up Forum – Gaming as a Driver
of Innovation In the evening, the Start-up Forum, attended by over 90 participants – predominantly students – became a vibrant hub for creative ideas, bold projects and interdisciplinary exchange. Start-ups such as Joy Jab presented their games, which attendees could try out straight away.
The panel discussion featured experts Yuna Avetysyan (R42), Julien Schillinger (Panda Bee), Armin Reith (Saxony Economic Development Agency), Prof. Dr Alexander Marbach (Mittweida University of Applied Sciences), as well as founder Manuel Dudczig (Vrendex GmbH) and founder Simon Jahn (Stolen Cow Games) engaged in conversation with one another and with the audience. It became clear that gaming is far more than just entertainment – it is a field of the future for entrepreneurial thinking and creative action.
Dr Dirk Liebers, site manager of SAXEED in Mittweida, put it this way:
“We wanted to show which dedicated teams at Mittweida University of Applied Sciences are working on this topic – and what they have already achieved. The Start-up Forum provided exactly the right setting for this.”
An intense day full of gaming fun, new contacts and concrete prospects – we would like to extend our warmest thanks to everyone involved.
