Stefan Eriksson is the network Game Hub Ume\u00e5's new community manager and also eXpression's latest recruitment. In close cooperation with Ume\u00e5 municipality, he will help support the established gaming industry in northern Sweden and create even better conditions for startups and indie developers. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The game development industry is on the rise. New games and studios are emerging all the time and many of the established companies are growing fast. And yes, we're talking about northern Sweden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In cooperation with Ume\u00e5 municipality, eXpression Ume\u00e5 is now investing in increased support for the growing industry in the north, where Stefan Eriksson has a central role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It feels great to have finally landed in the middle of the gaming industry, which was after all a childhood dream for me. Creative environments are the best thing I know and eXpression is full of creative people I can be inspired by. What I hope for most of all is to contribute to Ume\u00e5 really being able to be associated with game development even more. Universities, birch trees and games! says Stefan<\/strong>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The new role involves both project management around the grassroots network Game Hub Ume\u00e5 and supporting the established gaming industry in Ume\u00e5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The initiative is a close collaboration with Ume\u00e5 municipality, which recently decided on continued support for the growing industry and the regional gaming cluster Arctic Game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I will support Game Hub Ume\u00e5, which is a community for Ume\u00e5's game creators. This includes coordinating activities and efforts to inspire, increase knowledge and help create new contacts. The cooperation with Ume\u00e5 Kommun's business community also includes creating better strategic conditions for Ume\u00e5 as a game city. One of the goals is more training, says Stefan<\/strong>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Regional collaboration key to success<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stefan highlights the strength of the gaming industry in northern Sweden, the widespread indie scene and the importance of collaborating with others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I see a huge potential that remains untapped, perhaps especially here in Ume\u00e5. My hope is that cooperation between the cities within the Arctic Game cluster will provide space and opportunity for more developers to invest in their ideas.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
