First Annual SGA Report About the Serbian Gaming Industry

Two years ago, when we set out to establish the Serbian Games Association (SGA), we were cautiously optimistic. We immediately recognized the value a trade organization such as the SGA can bring to the growth and development of the industry. However, we were uncertain as to how big the ecosystem is and how it would react to our initiative.

Today, I am proud to say that the response was incredibly positive, and we were blown away by the size of the ecosystem and its diversity. SGA now has over 60 members, ranging from indie teams, esports businesses, VFX studios, to globally recognized game developers. We also have our Partners whose services are helping our members to develop and inspire future generations. Thanks to the activities of SGA, our members, and our partners, the community is thriving. Together, our members have created one of the fastest-growing parts of our economy, employing over 1.500 people in highly skilled and highly productive jobs.

Thanks to them – our incredibly talented people and their work, Serbia is now positioned as one of the hottest new countries for game development.
I consider myself incredibly privileged to be at the epicenter of the Serbian games industry.

Every day, I am amazed by the creativity, hard work and persistence demonstrated by our members. From groundbreaking technology to create digital humans, audio-based video games for visually impaired people to massively popular mobile games, our members are pushing the boundaries of the global video games industry.

In this inaugural report about the state of Serbian Games Industry, we have set out to capture key data about the ecosystem, showcase our members and to highlight an opportunity. An opportunity to join us and become involved in one of the most dynamic and fast-growing industries, in the world and here in Serbia.
