Rethinking Cities Through Games

Breakfast conversation: How can games help us rethink the cities of the future?

Join us for breakfast at Game Town and a conversation about games, cities and sustainable urban development.

We’ll be joined by Paradox Interactive to talk about how games can help us explore and think differently about cities. Drawing on their work with Cities: Skylines, we’ll discuss everything from building and managing virtual cities to how games can be used in real-world urban development.

The event will be an informal moderated conversation, with plenty of time for questions and discussion. No presentations or slides – just an interesting conversation over breakfast.

Anyone interested in games, sustainability and urban development is welcome. The event is for people working in the games industry, cities and sustainability, as well as anyone simply curious about the topic.

Organised by Dataspelsbranschen (Swedish Games Industry) as part of Stockholm Impact Days: Rethink Cities.
