Helsinki started to host a festival for gamers in the early 1990s. Importantly, what they really mean is a festival for multimedia programming, the Assembly demo party: "The first Assembly was held from July 24 to July 26, 1992, in Kauniainen. It was organized by the Amiga demo groups Complex and Rebels, and the PC demo group Future Crew." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assembly_%28demo_party%29 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assembly_%28demo_party%29 There's a chapter to be written about the last year with the exits including Nokia Devices to Microsoft Mobile, Supercell to the Japanese GungHo, and Moves to Facebook. These prove the existence of liquidity and create more for the next startups.
