“ Starting a game studio is a real challenge, as it can take several years before you even have a product. The opportunity to finance the early stage of a studio is therefore invaluable and will allow many talented developers with promising game projects to take their first step,” says Tobias Karlsson at Krufs Productions.“

" It’s fantastic that there is now access to capital for developing new, innovative games and building sustainable companies in Värmland, and very exciting that the first investment has now been made", says Patrick Standfast CEO at The Great Journey.
