Main | First Berne Chapter Meeting »
The IGDA Berne Chapter
The Berne chapter is the effort to reactivate at least parts of the currently dormant Switzerland chapter. The team of three behind this effort is led by Adrian, Felix and Ron.
The restarted chapter has three goals:
- A city based, not a region based chapter, although not living in Berne is not a restriction to be a member, the focus will be on events in and around Bern.
- Regular meetings where the interested parties can meet, exchange and have a beer (or 3).
- build a mailing list and other communication method where the chapter members can communicate easily with each other.
Anybody who is interested in making any type of game on any platform is warmly welcome.
We intend to start with 4 meetings a year where we mostly talk about games and game development, including technologies, game design, opportunities, etc. While we think it is good to socialize, we would also like to learn from each other and to see, experiment, play with, break, put back together and break again* new technologies, ideas and projects. Every second meeting we intend to have a presentation of some new technology or relevant topic.
The first meeting will be held in Berne. Concrete informations will be released when they are ready.
To keep updated about events there is a Berne IGDA Chapter mailing list. To join the mailing list send an empty email to this email address:
igda-berne-chapter-subscribe@swordlord.ch
You will need to validate your subscription with an answer to an auto generated mail.
Happy gaming and welcome to the new chapter IGDA Berne Chapter
*not necessarily in that order
