He pointed out 45 companies have chosen Hyderabad as their destination in the gaming sector in the last two years taking the total to 80.A recent study has shown that India's active Internet user base is expected to reach 900 million by 2025, a 45 per cent increase since last year.Telangana VFX, Animation and Gaming Association (TVAGA) President Rajiv Chilaka said the pandemic had given an opportunity to create IndiaJoy 2021 and bring the tech community together on a wider, far more impactful stage, with a click of a button."2020 was tough for the industry including ours, while gaming animation, VFX suffered because shooting stopped. The industry witnessed a decline of 10 per cent growth. But the good thing is that companies invested into R&D and IP and innovated the current business plans, which will yield great results in the future," he said.Biren Ghose, Chairman CII National Committee for AVGC & Country Head - Technicolor India, said Telangana has shown strong strategic intent in partnering industry and academia with enabling policy and infrastructure support to take the games, VFX and animation industries to new levels of performance. IndiaJoy is the forum that celebrates the milestones and acts as a torchbearer for the state.The future is going to be about skills, AVGC has gone through steep revolutions. We believe drop-out from schools, and women if absorbed into the system will provide a huge thrust to the industry, he added.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
