GDC 2024 (March 18-22)
GDC is collectively organized by the Italian Trade Agency Los Angeles Office and the Audiovisual Office of the Rome headquarters, in collaboration with IIDEA – Italian Videogame Association.
A delegation of 16 companies representing the best of the Italian video games industry with a wide offer in terms of diversity of content will attend this 38th edition of GDC.
Nowadays more than 160 companies are operating in game development in Italy, with more than 2400 professionals working in the industry (+50% compared to 2021). Italian developers are predominantly focused on developing premium video games for consoles and PCs, and their global recognition is growing for their ability to develop AA-AA quality video games with independent video game costs. In recent years, the sector has started to be supported by public institutions through the implementation of the tax credit for video games, measure that grants a tax credit equal to 25% of the eligible production costs of a video game, and through dedicated acceleration programs across the country.
Italian game development companies:
- They are constantly increasing their talent pool to expand their reach to more platforms and manage multiple projects simultaneously, starting to recruit staff from abroad through remote working systems and procedures;
- They have a proven track record of successfully collaborating with international companies, including major companies in the industry, such as Microsoft/Xbox, Sony/PlayStation, Nintendo, Epic Games and many others;
- They demonstrated an innovative approach to distinguish themselves in both the reinterpretation of franchises and the creation of new genres, to the point of becoming in some cases role models (i.e. racing) for other companies wishing to maximize the potential of video games based on world-class intellectual properties and brands.
Do not miss the opportunity to enjoy a coffee and meet Italian companies at booth P1647. We are waiting for you!
