School of Gaming is a safe haven for every gamer.
Everybody can be a gamer, enjoy learning new things, getting to know new people around the world and have fun in a safe and inclusive environment.
The company
School of Gaming Galactic Oy was founded 2020 just before the pandemic turned the world upside down. The business idea was originally a bit different - we wanted to set up gaming hubs around the world. Alas, everybody knows what happened to that idea. Let's just say that we needed the famous startup magic aka pivoting badly.
We had a few think tanks. During some of them we swam in dark, desperate waters. Then it hit us. We could organise one global hub online and offer game education from there. Like everyone else, we started organising clubs using all the same tools schools were using the lockdown. And it was a blessing in disguise. We quickly realised that by doing game education online, we could reach much bigger gamer community and actually make a positive dent to this universe if we worked really hard.
And on that road we are today.

What kind of dent we are after?
Kids these days need to navigate in ever changing seas in online world. In addition, a lot of what we know now, will be totally different in upcoming decades. We need to teach kids skills they need in order to stay afloat and even thrive in this whirlpool of digital turmoil. And online games are the perfect tool to teach these valuable lessons. And the best part is, that kids don't even know they are at school.
We sneakily use their love for games as a bridge to topics that are essential in the 21st century. We let them be children and provide a safe playground where they can be lead by their innate curiosity and enthusiasm. Our professional game educators are there for them as guides and experience architects.
We aim to make our gamers smart and self-confident digital citizens. Thus, we are making the future of Internet and all metaverses brighter for next generations. We have zero-tolerance for all kinds of bullying and toxic behaviour. And that kind of future we want to build also online for all our kids.
In addition, we are creating a completely new professional sphere where popular games and online platforms are used to create new services for the markets. We have employed people with different kinds of personal challenges who have previously thought that they would be left outside the work-life for good.
