The DITP brought delegates from Thailand’s game and animation industry to join in the first Thailand-Canada Game Industry Partnership event, held in Vancouver, Canada on March 10.
Thirty Canadian businesspeople from British Columbia met with Thai delegates from four companies including Magic Box Asia, Infinity Levels Studio, Sanook Games and Yggdrazil Group.
“Thailand’s game industry is growing rapidly and is attracting increased interest from foreign investors. We received positive feedback at the event and hope it will lead to increased business between the two countries later,” said DITP Director-General Malee Choklumlerd.
Thailand’s game industry was worth US$254 million (8.89 billion baht) in 2015 and is estimated to grow by 13.5% in 2016 and 22.3% in 2017. The value of game exports amounted to approximately US$29 million (1.04 billion baht) in 2015.
