Kajaani Hub March Gathering

Saddening news. Because of some unforeseen consequences, we couldn't get people from Housemarque to visit us.

But fear not! The Kajaani Hub is always on its toes and we've come up with a solution! Kajaani being the Finlands "new mecca" of gamedev, we also have some eSports related things to present.

Touko Möttönen and Noel McAvennie from the Kajaani University of Appliced Sciences are working on a "eSports Summercamp" to promote eSports. There will also be an introduction about the Kajaanian eSports promoting community called Kavala.

We are looking forward to seeing You at Kulma!
