Conan eller Josefine? Politikk og økonomi i den norske spillbransjen

Abstract

Abstract The article describes the different players in the Norwegian game industry, and discusses the challenges and possibilities that they face. In particular, it is argued that challenges relate to publishing, financial issues and recruitment, and that there are interesting possibilities in connection with the recent political attention that Norwegian game companies have received. An issue in addition is the fact that Norwegian game companies have never been closely associated with international publishing houses.
