Another successful mentoring and networking opportunity connecting newcomers and industry experts.

The PGDA proudly hosted the third iteration of the successful Mentoring Café at the FH BFI Vienna. Organised by Simon Schneider and in cooperation with the Interactive Media and Games Business programme, the Café brought together students of the FH with industry experts. In 15 minute slots, it gave the students the opportunity to ask their most burning questions regarding a wide range of topics, from general career advice to portfolio reviews and starting out as an indie developer.
