Description

While we as game developers tend to create all kinds of roadmaps while producing a new kick-ass game, we often seem to be completely lost when it gets to a clear and mature business plan for our own company. A vision statement for the next AAA blockbuster? Sure thing – here you go! A vision statement for my studio? Wait a minute…
My main goal for this class is to sharpen the awareness of especially studio leads, directors and senior managers on the importance of having a clear strategy for your team – no matter if you run a small indie studio or if you are in charge for a mid- to large-sized multi-project company.
This Master Class will include a wide variety of best practices and learnings, starting from handling studio growth, fostering company culture or thinking about exit strategies – but also dealing with publishers, investors and other partners in all sorts of situations or growing your business network.
Never forget: Coming to the realisation that your organisation needs one is easy – but actually creating a strategy is a little harder.

Takeaway
Best practices and learnings, starting from handling studio growth, fostering company culture or thinking about exit strategies – but also dealing with publishers, investors and partners in all sorts of situations and growing your business network.

Audience Addressed: Senior management, executives, leads and directors
