The Games Solution Centre offers a unique prototyping environment for small to medium enterprises operating in the gaming technology markets. It was officially launched on 28 October.
Aubeck Kam, CEO, of the Media Development Authority, said, "Industry and government collaboration has always been key to growing the media sector in Singapore. MDA's partnership with industry partners such as Sony Computer Entertainment Asia, Nanyang Polytechnic, Autodesk(R) and Hewlett-Packard Singapore on the Games Solution Centre will benefit more than 500 game companies and developers over the next three years."
Developers will be able to take advantage of resources, networking, mentorship and commercial opportunities through the centre - thereby accelerating the development of their games, he added.
The centre also hosts Sony's 'Playstation incubation studio', the first of its kind in Southeast Asia.
Tetsuhiko Yasuda, President, SCE Asia, said, "We are dedicated to providing innovative excitement and a high quality game experience to users, and that is the reason why we are fully in support of the incubation program in Asia. We are very happy to launch Southeast Asia's first 'PlayStation Incubation Studio Singapore'."
