It was Echtzeit-Time again! On Wednesday the 7th of December the berlin startup scene met at the zanox Campus to network, have some drinks and most important: fun. This time Norbert and Daniel attended and had a great evening. Thx again Deutsche Startups!
Roman & Daniel talked about Setting up a business in the games industry at the Animago Award & Conference 2011.
Their presentation gave an overview on the biggest challenges for Start-ups in the games industry as well as best practices how to deal with them. They covered following topics: idea and vision, core team and employees, daily business, product development, financing, legal protection, work-life and balance.
It was a great conference - thanks again!
Last week we attended the Startup Week 2011 in Vienna and it was a blast! We met awesome people who do awesome things, discussed the future and watched great panels & key notes. Especially Morten Lunds Leassons learned was amazing! You can check it out here:

Last week Norbert attended the Making Games Play Social 2011 conference in Munich, Germany. Next to interesting roundtables and great presentations (e.g. Stephanie Kaiser from Wooga with her talk "How to take care about monsters: Virality and Engagement in Germany's most successful Social Game") it was a good opportunity to get to know some of the brightest minds of the international social gaming world. We will definitely attend again next year and so should you.
This Weekend is the first Music Hack Day Berlin at MTV Networks and we will attend. Music Hack Day is where "...programmers, designers and artists hack on the next generation of music apps for consuming, exploring, creating an manipulating music.". We are looking fwd - a lot!
Last week the Quo Vadis / DGT took place again in our very dear homtown Berlin. We've been there and it was a blast (especially the nights)! Plenty of nice people, plenty of nice talks. If couldnt be there, check out the following video (in german only, sorry) and make sure to be there next year.
New research released today at MIPTV/Connected Creativity from MXP4 demonstrated the untapped potential of social music gaming on Facebook. Good read - check it out here:
