'February 7: Virtual Worlds and Gaming Live Case Day to be Livestreamed'

On February 7, 9:00 am to 4:30 pm CET, we will present the Virtual Worlds
and Gaming Live Case Day at the Stockholm School of Economics (SSE). During
this day, masters students from the Royal Institute of Technology and the
Stockholm School of Economics in Sweden will present their work conducted in
the Strategy Module of a Media Management Course.

During the three weeks of this module, the students have investigated in
their groups a number of strategic issues within the virtual worlds and
gaming industries in the US, Europe, and Asia. There will be 16 groups
making a 15 minute presentation each. Below is the schedule of the topics
that will be presented.

The Live Case Day will be livestreamed both onto the internet via our blog
(www.nordicworlds.net) as well as onto SSE¹s island in Second Life:
