Aalto Games Alumni Day 2023

Welcome to a the second Aalto Games Alumni Day of sharing, playing and networking!

Throughout the years, Aalto University game design and production program has generated an impressive pool of alumni. The Finnish game industry is also widely impacted by the alumni of former three universities that the Aalto University was born out from: the Helsinki University of Technology, the Helsinki School of Economics and the University of Art and Design Helsinki.

You are welcomed to celebrate together the excellent community we have, get to know each other even better, visit some memory lanes, explore new and old game projects from Aalto, as well as relax within the unique surroundings of a wonderful mini-island Lonna!
