QUÉBEC, A HOT SPOT IN DIGITAL ENTERTAINMENT
The birthplace of software pioneers Softimage and Discreet Logic and companies like A2M, Frima Studio and Sarbakan, Québec now ranks among the hottest spots in the world for the development of computer games and interactive content.
Thanks to its creative workforce, very competitive operating costs and generous government support, Québec's electronic game industry has enjoyed strong growth in the past few years.
Quebec has attracted many industry leaders like Ubisoft, Electronic Arts, Activision, Eidos and THQ, as well as related companies specializing in testing, localization, sound effects, music, animation and special effects.
In addition to these distinguished firms, Quebec offers a solid network of world-renowned specialty schools, universities and colleges that provide complete, customized training to meet industry needs.
"Montréal is envied as a leader in the multimedia field. There are few cities that make that boast. An exceptional talent pool and a level of creativity and innovation that, supported by excellent schools and by the government, make Montréal a business location like no other in the world. Its record over the last ten years is convincing proof."— Stéphane D'Astous, Managing Director, EIDOS-MONTRÉAL, 2009
