Press Start: The Game Hub in Flemingsberg – Finally!

On April 24th, after just two months of hard work, it was finally time for the kick-off for the game cluster Press Start. The initiative is led by Drivhuset, in close collaboration with Flemingsberg Science Foundation and Södertörn University’s Innovation Station.

“Press Start’s vision is to become the hub for game development in Flemingsberg – a place where serious games are not just created, but developed to drive innovation forward. We’re building a cross-sector environment where creative industries, life science, and deep tech converge. By putting entrepreneurship at the center from day one, we’re shaping the future of the gaming industry – more innovative, dynamic, and sustainable.”
– Leslie Alfredsson, Drivhuset Stockholm, Cluster Developer for Press Start

Press Start is here for the aspiring hobby coder, the freshly graduated game developer, and anyone dreaming of a career in gaming. Press Start hosts regular meet-ups where you can test new games, get feedback on your own projects, and connect with key figures in the industry.

A huge step forward in our vision to become a center for game development. The future starts here!

Taking the leap as a solo developer in Sweden’s growing game industry

Jacques Diringer left a secure job at the game giant King to follow his dream of creating his own game from scratch. In a Stockholm where the gaming industry is growing rapidly and new companies are launched every year, he now embarks on a more uncertain but creative journey. The path has been both challenging and inspiring, shaped by a vibrant gaming community, new collaborations, and the courage to trade stability for freedom.

Steps shaping innovation and growth – Natasha Bank sums up the first year of Life Science Cluster Flemingsberg

A future life science cluster isn’t built in a year – but with a solid foundation and the courage to act, important steps can be taken along the way. In February 2025, we launched Life Science Cluster Flemingsberg: a multifaceted project with powerful, interconnected ambitions – to enable Flemingsberg’s life science cluster to reach its full potential by collaboration and creating the right conditions for the establishment and growth of those who drive innovation – small and medium-sized enterprises – and, in doing so, contribute to the Stockholm region’s leading position within the sector.

Johnny Högberg Summarizes 2025 – A Year of Growth and Collaboration in Flemingsberg

We are most effective and make the greatest impact when we engage our founders and leverage their size, organizations, and influence, and we still strongly believe in this. At the same time, the fact that we have grown as an organization has also made a difference. Today, we are exactly the kind of “two-pizza team” that Amazon founder Jeff Bezos highlights as the most effective. Among other things, we are now running two cluster initiatives and creating a level of engagement, buzz, and content that is noticeable in Flemingsberg and is actually helping to change the area.
