During the 4-day event, the young enterpreneurs will be present at the fair inside the Italy booth – accompanied by Ivan Venturi, coordinator of the Bologna Game Farm acceleration program – where they will have the opportunity to get in touch with game development companies and publishers, present their prototypes and discuss possible future prospects and opportunities.

The participation of the winning teams of the first edition of Bologna Game Farm at GDC is a source of great pride for all the actors involved in this ambitious project for the development of the videogame industry in the Emilia-Romagna region. Bologna Game Farm continues to follow the participants on their path even once the acceleration program is over, supporting them and creating opportunities to meet at trade fairs with gaming industry professionals. GDC is one of the events on the agenda between now and the end of the year.
