What’s New?

The most significant improvement is the addition of two new Top Level categories: Entrepreneurship and Business. Additionally, the Audio section has been completely reshaped, and Community Management has been rearranged under the Marketing title.

What’s Next?

The new prototype currently covers only the connections between titles and competences. The next step is to write the content for each profession and individual competences. However, before we proceed, we need to ensure the structure is as good as it can get. The map we publish will represent the best possible balance, capturing the essence of the European game industry sector. A new version of the map will be published next winter.
