The Internet and Mobile Association of India (IAMAI) will be hosting the second edition of India’s premier annual gaming conference, the Indian Gaming Convention (IGC) on October 14 and 15 in New Delhi.
The conference has been designed following Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s call to India’s gaming talent to lead the world, the organisers said in a media statement yesterday.
The conference will witness attendance from key regulators, policymakers, industry leaders, investors, game developers and other major stakeholders in India’s gaming ecosystem.
With Meta as the Title Partner for IGC 2024, the conference aims to focus on the growth potential of India’s gaming industry, the roadmap for making India the global leader and establishing gaming as a significant contribution to India’s digital economy ambitions.
Knowledge Partner PWC will launch a report on India’s gaming industry’s size, scale and potential.
