Teambuilding Trip

At the beginning of the school year, we go on an overnight trip together.

The goal of the trip is for us to quickly get to know each other, while also pitching ideas and plans we have for the year.

In the evening, we gather around the campfire. Flames have been a central gathering point throughout human history. Most of us love sitting around a fire, sharing good stories, food, and pitching ideas and plans. This is an effective team-building activity!

Nordic Tour

The Nordic tour starts in Oslo before we move on to Sweden and Finland.

In Oslo, we hope to visit the game studios Funcom, Red Thread Games, and Krillbite. All of them are milestones in the Norwegian game industry:

Funcom was established in 1990 and has since grown to become one of the world's largest independent game studios. They are best known for MMORPG games such as Conan Exiles and The Secret World. They are now developing the official Dune game. Red Thread Games has roots in Funcom but has both veterans and new additions to the game industry. From here, we have the games Dreamfall Chapters and Draugen. They are now working hard on Dustborne. Krillbite had a major success with Among the Sleep and established itself as one of the new important studios in Norway. In Oslo, we visit schools such as Kristiania and Westerdals.

After Oslo, we go to Malmö. There, we find Frictional Games, the studio behind the Amnesia series and SOMA.

The trip ends in Helsinki, Finland, where we find Remedy (Max Payne, Alan Wake, and Control) and Housemarque (Returnal). Whether we get access to all these studios remains to be seen, but we set the bar high.

The details of the tour program are determined by the class together. There are many ways to customize the tour according to the class's wishes. For example, we can add visits to other cities or other activities. The most important thing is that we get a study trip that gives us inspiration and great experiences.
