THE PLAYING FINN book released!

THE PLAYING FINN: STORIES ON SUCCESSFUL GAME DEVELOPMENT AND MUSIC EXPORT

by TONI-MATTI KARJALAINEN, MIIKKA JUHANI LEHTONEN, JANI NIIPOLA

The book presents cases from the Finnish game and music industry; how a small Nordic nation has managed to build successful stories on the highly competitive US and Japanese markets. The illustrative examples and compelling case studies shed light on ecosystems, business models, networking, as well as different export adventures – ranging from nascent startups to global superstars. 

The book can be ordered at least through these web stores. Some of them (Talentum, Booky…) should also deliver to outside Finland. The publisher is also working to get the e-version out in Amazon.
