INTERSECTIVE GAME
The project goal is to establish a test bed cluster in gaming technology and methodology, which via innovation in intersections and increased exchange between sectors strengthens technology and service development in the gaming industry and other industries.
Intersective Game is a 3-year ERUF ÖN project with Skellefteå Science City as the project owner. The project is also co-financed by Region Västerbotten, Region Norrbotten, Skellefteå municipality, Umeå municipality, Luleå municipality, and Boden Business Park.
