🎮 Памятка. Льготные программы и финансирование в Великобритании для разработчиков видеоигр

Сегодня Лондон стал одним из крупнейших мировых центров разработки игр, где расположены офисы таких компаний, как Rockstar Games, Ubisoft, Sony Interactive Entertainment Europe и других. Такой привлекательности способствуют развитая правовая система, благоприятная бизнес-среда, а также различные льготные программы для разработчиков, направленные на стимулирование роста и развития игровой индустрии.

🐱 Юристы REVERA подготовили памятку по основным программам финансовой поддержки IT-бизнеса:

▪️Research and Development (R&D) Tax Relief
▪️Video Games Tax Relief (VGTR)
▪️Video Games Tax Relief Loans (VGTR Loans)
▪️Video Games Expenditure Credits (VGEC)
▪️UK Games Fund

Памятка включает описание предоставляемых льгот, а также условий их получения — 📥СКАЧАТЬ

Постараемся уложиться в чуть меньше часа, будем рады, если будет полезно)

Hello GDCy People!

Hello GDCy People!

We, together with our friends from GDEV want to launch a small survey:
Do games industry professionals trade stocks?

There are a lot of public game companies that list their shares on stock exchanges and pay dividends. But how actively do games industry professionals participate in this process? To answer this question, our colleagues decided to conduct a study.

Any research involves conducting a survey to obtain data. With the help of you, the audience, we will be able to find out how deeply games developers and other professionals are involved in the stock market.

Here is the survey we invite you to take part in. It will take just around five minutes to complete. The survey is being run from November 28 to December 28. We will publicly share its results in the form of a study in January.

Link to survey - https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfX7ldn7mNNbdcdVqJh4bxQKHRkCjHEHV-j9IGoOGaG6QOZzw/viewform?usp=send_form

-----------------------------------------------------
Покупают ли акции разработчики игр?
Многие игровые компании сегодня являются публичными. Их акциями торгуют, с их ценных бумаг получают дивиденды. Но насколько активное участие в этом принимают сами сотрудники игровых компаний?

Любое исследование предполагает проведение опроса для получения данных. Отталкиваясь от них наши коллеги смогут понять, насколько непосредственно игровые специалисты вовлечены в игру на бирже. Как раз в этом опросе мы и предлагаем принять участие. Его прохождение займет не больше пяти минут.

Опрос будет проводится до конца декабря. Его результаты в формате исследования мы опубликуем в январе.
