About the conference:
The Games User Research SIG of the IGDA is excited announce our partnership with Supercell to bring you the #GamesUR Conference 2026 in Helsinki on October 22–23, 2026, at Solo Sokos Hotel Pier 4!
The #GamesUR Conference is the annual gathering of the Games User Research community — for practitioners working across console, PC, mobile, and academia. We also welcome anyone who wants to know more about the games user research discipline. This event is run by volunteers from the IGDA Games User Research SIG, with support from IGDA and IGDA Finland. This year, we will have a lineup of incredible Games User Research talks across 2 days.
We’re also proud to join forces with Finnish Games Week 2026, alongside events including Leadership Day by IGDA Finland, Pocket Gamer Connects Nordics, W Love Games, and more — giving attendees the opportunity to take part in a full week of industry events and networking.
We would like to thank our Sponsors who helped make this event possible: Supercell, Interpret, Player Research, PlaytestCloud, Sony, and Activision.
