The 2024 edition of the Games Festival introduces a new feature, an area designed to explore the intersection of academia - universities and research centres - and the gaming world. Spanning 1,000 square meters, it will showcase board games, role-playing games, and a series of workshops.

Year after year, gaming increasingly becomes recognized as a vital cultural medium and a valuable tool for research, education, and the Third Mission.
