Aarhus Festuge: Tech & Gaming

AARHUS FESTUGE X TECH HUB AARHUS

Tech Pub Aarhus is an event series where we build bridges between the people building tech and the people feeling it in everyday life. Where nerdiness, curiosity, and opinions share the same table. Where we talk about what tech does to the city, to society, and how it can all come together in a way that makes sense for more people. We meet once a month in an informal atmosphere, with a beer in hand and room for both reflection and laughter. During the festival week, we are turning things up and hosting 4 x Tech Pub Aarhus. This evening, we will dive into Tech & Gaming.

Gaming has become much more than entertainment. We will bring together game developers, creators, and tech profiles to discuss why gaming today is culture, identity, and technology melted together.

Julie has had great success with her series of Escape The...-games on the niche platform and gadget Playdate, and now she has grown the team to continue the success on Steam - the biggest game outlet in the World.

Julie will play music from the game and share how it is used to evoke the right emotions and build atmosphere.
