Gaming technology provider Comtrade Gaming has held its annual free international summer school for aspiring computer sciences students.

EdIT 2014

EdIT, as the event is known, has taken place every summer for the last 18 years and is held across six locations in three countries - Slovenia, Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The gaming topic for 2014 focused on the development of a bingo game from scratch using HTML5 technology with 15 students taking part in a full simulation of a real project as participants tackled the challenges of teamwork and a limited time frame.

Aleš Gornjec, general manager at Comtrade Gaming, said: “Our corporate social responsibility policy is mostly focused on opportunities for young people, thus EdIT is a perfect way to give them a chance to get to know the real world of business, to give them practical knowledge and to discover young talents and invite them to join our company.

“We are very proud that this year they have developed a fully featured mobile bingo game in just two weeks.”
