Learn from other industries: How to be successful in the video game industry

Publicerat 5 March 2018

At KTH Executive School we have several times seen the strength when companies from different sectors, but with similar problems, meet and learn from each other. Inspiration on new ways to define and work with a problem can lead to wonderful results – and you don’t have to be afraid to discuss openly about your challenges since you don’t compete with each other.

A growing (and very successful) industri in Sweden is the gaming industry. This text is the first in a series about success factors and learnings from that industry. The insights are based on a report produced by researchers from KTH.

Do you want to meet executives from other industries in order to develop you company? Read more about our group formats.

AI in China

Publicerat 26 February 2018

“There’s no data like more data.” More data makes AI smarter. So, how much data is China generating?

China has the most mobile phones and Internet users in the world
