Pocket Gamer announces packed program for Helsinki Mobile Mixer
Pocket Gamer's diligent event organisers have unveiled the program for the forthcoming PG Mobile Mixer, which will offer attendees a chance to think, drink and connect in Helsinki on 23 April.

First up on the schedule is an examination of two huge emerging markets for mobile gaming – China and Russia – delivered by regional experts from CocoaChina and Nevosoft.

Next up, panel discussions will offer attendees the chance to hear a host of perspectives on acquisition and monetisation, with panellists including Papaya Mobile's Chris Hanage, King's Tommy Palm and Grand Cru's Thorbjörn Warin, as well as PocketGamer.biz editor-at-large Jon Jordan.

Battlefield Helsinki

The second panel of the evening – also known as the Battle Panel – will see our invited guests duking it out over whether it's best to stay small and nimble, or whether you have to think big to succeed in the mobile gaming marketplace.

Steel Media MD Chris James will serve as your referee, presiding over a verbal sparring session between Supercell CEO Illkka Paananen, Rovio SVP Jami Laes, Frogmind co-founder Johannes Vuorinen and Grand Cru Games CEO Markus Pasula.

And as if all that wasn't enough for one night of festivities, a section of the event will be given over to recruitment, too, with representatives from Rovio, Unity, Grey Area, Supercell and AppCampus all on hand for a chat with jobseekers.

Thirsty?

We've saved the most important part for last, of course, with free food and 'networking drinks' provided by our generous sponsors – Cocoa China and Papaya – planned well into the evening.

So whether you're looking to meet new contacts, learn about global markets, seek employment opportunities or just fancy a beer, the Helsinki Mobile Mixer has you covered.
