What better investment is there than inspiring the next generation?

Recently, our students had the privilege of visiting Riot Games, where they were welcomed by Stefano Martincigh for an engaging and inspiring session focused on careers, professional growth, and opportunities within the games industry.

Stefano was incredibly generous with his time, sharing insights from his own experiences and offering valuable advice on navigating the games industry. Through open and honest conversations, students gained a deeper understanding of the skills, mindset, and dedication required to build a successful career in game development.

Beyond the practical advice, what made the visit truly special was Stefano's genuine commitment to supporting emerging talent. His encouragement and willingness to answer questions helped students build confidence in their abilities and better understand the pathways available to them after graduation.

Experiences like these are invaluable. They help bridge the gap between university and industry, giving students the opportunity to learn directly from experienced professionals while seeing firsthand how leading studios operate.

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Stefano for his generosity, enthusiasm, and commitment to helping our students realise their full potential. We are also grateful to Riot Games for hosting us and making this memorable experience possible.

Opportunities to connect with industry leaders play a vital role in preparing our students for the future, and this visit was a wonderful example of the positive impact that industry engagement can have on the next generation of game developers.
