Introducing Finnish Games Week 2025 - 5 Days of Games Industry Excellence

Meet Finnish Game Week, a week-long series of game industry events taking place in Helsinki, and powered at its core by a mighty conference quartet:

IGDA Finland - Leadership Day 2025

Leadership Day by IGDA Finland is an international event about how we build companies, teams and working cultures to build better games. 

Pocket Gamer Connects Helsinki 2025

Celebrating its 12th year, PG Connects Helsinki focuses on connecting you with the right people from all sections of the games industry so that you can do great business.

Big Screen Gaming Summit Helsinki 2025

Focusing squarely on the opportunities, challenges, and key trends in the world of console, PC, XR, and web3, this summit (held alongside PG Connects Helsinki – 1 ticket, 2 events!) will deliver a dedicated forum for discussion, content, and connections within this gaming landscape. 

W Love Games 2025

Dedicated to diversity and leadership, accessibility, education, and gamedev practices, the 7th W Love Games hybrid conference will host wide range of talks, workshops, portfolio and CV reviews as well IGDA Finland Mentor café. 

The action doesn’t stop there, and you can expect fringe event activity such as the World Game Developer Awards and our very own Top 50 Game Makers executive dinner to roll into the mix – more to follow on this.

By concentrating all events into the week we can focus on bringing together indies, developers, publishers, investors, representatives from every sector of the industry, students and like-minded creatives looking to dive into all aspects of the business of games, across all formats – from the making to the marketing, launch to live ops, whilst also exploring the topics of leadership, teamwork, business development, and more.

And, of course, it’s also all about the connections. The structure and ethos of the content maximises the opportunities for all involved, whether that’s developers getting to meet investors, or publishers discovering new talent to bring onboard – at its essence, Finnish Games Week is designed to educate, certainly, but also to promote and unite, bringing potential partners together within a unique, dedicated week-long session of back-to-back conferencing.
