GameTech is a blended program that requires you to be in Vilnius less than 50% of the time. At least one member of the team must be on-site for 5 of the 12 weeks of the programme.

The rest of the time, all mentoring sessions and other events will take place online. There will be no sessions over the Christmas period, but you will have work to do.
When on-site, all mentoring sessions will take place in Vilnius and exciting events are planned!

Participating studios will benefit from 24 hours of mentoring and follow-up meetings throughout the 3 months.

It’s up to you how you achieve the goals you’ve agreed with GameTech!
