Turkey's digital game exports planned to hit USD2bn


(MENAFN) The government posted that it intends to ship digital game at the value of USD2 billion by 2020, according to a leading sector representative in Turkey.

Moreover, the board member of the Initiative, Development and Technologies Association of Turkey (TGGT) added that he is pleased with the state motivation for innovation and technological outputs.

The Turkish official also announced "This [Turkey's growth] is happening because Turkey is a center in the Middle East. Besides, 51 percent of Turkey's population are youth, under the age of 25. The youth are interested in technology and follow this area of interest professionally. Turkey is the third fastest growing games market after Russia and Romania. Last year, the Turkish market's growth rate was 24.7 percent, which can be considered record growth. This growth will increase further in the future, and I estimate the Turkish games market will attain $2 billion in exports by 2020".
