Business models that support games for change

[Gene Koo]

I've posted notes from a recent conversation with educational game producers and developers about sustaining R&D in our products here:

http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/games/2013/05/22/sustaining-rd-in-learning-games/

While the focus was on educational games, from what I've observed these same thoughts pertain to the games for change sector in general. Too often we take closed-ended funding and treat our products as "done" on launch, while - for good reason - the commercial sector is increasingly treating their products as beta... forever.

I look forward to your feedback, thoughts, and discussion.
