We are delighted to announce our first ever VIP VoIP double bill, and even happier to announce two gaming giants as our guests!

Neil McFarland is Head of Games at Ustwo, creators of Monument Valley, the game that has taken the world by storm with it's beautiful design ,architecture and attention to detail. The game recouped its ten month development cost in the first two weeks of sales.

'The Mighty Eagle' or Peter Vesterbacka to give him his 'real' name, is the public face of Rovio, creators of Angry Birds, one of the largest mobile app successes the world has seen.

Each guest will speak for one hour with us via Skype, with 30 minutes open Q and A for each guest.

Hep,

Curios question: Who are "we"?
And also what is the money going towards? Does the two gentlemen require a payment to talk on Skype for 30 minutes?

I'd love to hear some of the tales behind MV though...

'We' is VIP VoIP, a monthly event series where we bring a big star directly to Copenhagen startups/entrepreneurs by setting up talks via Skype. It was started by me, Neil Murray http://twitter.com/neilswmurray

The money is going towards the costs of the event, and no payment is going to the speakers.

Ticket prices go to the food, drinks and running costs.

Also, just to clarify they talk on Skype for 1 hour each (30mins talk, 30 mins audience Q and A).
