The Province of Milan and the Chamber of Commerce presented in May 2011 the “Premio Videogame Milano” (Milan Videogame Award), a single contest for the production of videogames on the Milan area and for technical support to companies wishing to participate in the MIGS (a sort of “Market Briefing”) for the regional allocation of vouchers.
An initiative established to support and promote small and medium-sized companies in the videogames industry in the Milan area, officially unveiled last May at the Museum of Science and Technology in Via San Vittore 21, Milan. Through the contest will be selected the best proposals for the creation of interactive digital applications that enhance the city of Milan.
The competition provides a final ranking with a prize of 33,000 € for the first project awarded and three vouchers (2,000 €) for PMI (Public Medium-sized Enterprises) that are classified in the ranking from second to fourth position, as reimbursement for participation in the Montreal International Games Summit organized by the Embassy of Canada in November 2011.
On the official website www.mi.camcom.it you can find the regulation of the announcement, the project description and application forms for projects submitted by individual companies and the demand for projects submitted by groups (business groups, business groups and schools, groups of companies and professionals).
The final result of the “Premio Videogame Milano” will be available in the next months.
