What is Raw Talent?

Under the label RAW Talent game development students from various European universities come together and exhibit game projects created during their studies. Brought to life by Prof. Dr. Greta Hoffmann in 2024, RAW Talent gives students a chance to gain a foothold in the games industry and build experience while simultaneously showcasing the future generation of game makers. Since 2024 RAW Talent has grown immensely, increasing from 3 to 18 universities and from 19 to over 90 projects.
