About She Got Game
The mentoring and networking programme, She Got Game is designed to promote equal opportunities and support women in the game industry. It is directed at female game developers from Switzerland and the regions overseen by Pro Helvetia’s liaison offices. During the online programme, participants work on their game projects with guidance from industry experts, who mentor them not only on the project, but also in understanding the market. Furthermore, they receive the chance to attend lectures, share their experiences with other participants through group chats, and receive a stipend to develop their project.
