Games - Shared Resourcing

With NESTA support, Tiga is helping UK games developers share talented staff and strike collaborations between games companies with other creative industry sectors (publishing, film, animation and TV).

'Play Together' is a range of initiatives to enable developers to switch staff and resources and build business.

The initiative includes:

• Industry Sharing - allows developers to share people to maximise efficiency and streamline their businesses.

• Industry Services - a comprehensive database of UK games developers, affiliate industries and third party suppliers.

• Creative Industry Switch - a forum for the UK's creative industries (video games, film, TV, radio, music, animation etc) to connect, exchange ideas and get projects off the ground. 

• Education - a database for students and professionals with information on university courses and potential academic-industry collaborations.

For more information on the types of collaborations that have been achieved to date see the below case studies.

• Case Study - ALEX Credit Crunch Special - Tag Games and Tapisodes
• Case Study - Channel 4 work with Johnny Two Shoes
• Creative Industry Switch- results to date
