Britain goes big: More UK businesses than ever to hit Nordic Game

The largest ever delegation of UK businesses will hit Nordic Game in Malmö next week, with 16 firms supported by UKTI's Tradeshow Access Programme set to head for Sweden.

UK trade association TIGA reports grants of up to £1,500 have been offered to each of the 16 attending businesses, which cover every kind of business from mobile developers - including Mobile Pie and Climax - through to brand specialists.

"We are extremely pleased with the response we have seen to Nordic Game 2014," detailed TIGA CEO Dr. Richard Wilson.

"TIGA really values being able to work with UKTI to enable our members and other UK games businesses to expand their commercial opportunities via the Tradeshow Access Programme. This programme will enable our export focused UK games businesses to make new contacts and secure valuable development and business opportunities."

Those signed up are set to benefit from branded space on the expo floor, a reception service, a full access pass and a reservation at the Nordic Game Award Gala dinner, amongst other perks.

"UKTI and TIGA have done a brilliant job helping secure the largest ever delegation of UK businesses we have ever had attend Nordic Game," added communications and program director and Nordic Game Resources, Jacob Riis.

"It couldn't be a better time for so many great British businesses to be here either, as our 10thanniversary event is all set to be the best yet.

"We hope to work with TIGA on UKTI's TAP programme for many years to come, and am confident that with TIGA's support on the ground as well, all the attending companies from the UK will have an experience that's as enjoyable as it is valuable."
