Through the Commonwealth’s unique mixture of leading academic and cultural institutions, a talented work force, experienced investors and innovative entrepreneurs, the digital games design and development industry cluster is rapidly taking shape. By coordinating efforts and aligning stakeholders, resources and ideas, Massachusetts has the capability to claim an important share of the growing opportunities within the ascendant digital games industry.
