and Gaming Industry in India will also be released during the event, which will
cover overview of Animation and Gaming Industry, OutÂsourÂcing Trends,

Destination, Potential Inhibitors and Suggestions and Company profiles —
animation and gaming.
With global entertainÂment
majors like Walt DisÂney, Imax, Warner Brothers and Sony signing up contraÂcts
with Indian animation companies, India is fast emerÂging as an alternative to
Korea, Philippine and Taipei for animation outsourcing and is being recognized
as a post-production hub for animation.
According to NASSCOM
estimates, the animation industry in India is currently growing at a CAGR of 30
percent. With increase in the backend service work, Indian studios are moving up
the value chain; thus witnessing more co-production deals.
Also, with growth of the
entertainment and the mobile industry, the gaming industry too has seen a boom.
The gaming industry, which is worth US$ 10 billion in USA, is yet to be
seriously tapped by Indian companies. Further, with the wireless domain growing
at a furious pace giving fillip to use of a range of new devices, the potential
for Indian game developers is enormous.
NASSCOM Animation India 2006, in its third year now is an
ideal platform for delegates to get 'real world' information on the animaÂtion
and gaming industry with sessions like 'How to build world class animation
company,' 'How Asia leads the growth in the wireless content,' 'Mobile
Gaming,' 'Development strategies in children's entertainment and
content,' 'TV AnimaÂtion-India on the world
map' etc.
