In this week’s episode of #ShiftbyAI, we sit down with Matt Toner, Executive Director of Scaffold, Adam Brown from Alberta Innovates, and Michael Liebe from Booster Space to explore how Alberta is transforming its indie gaming scene into a thriving global powerhouse. Learn how Scaffold empowers small gaming studios to “think bigger” by connecting them with investors, industry experts, and international opportunities. With a goal to double Alberta’s gaming ecosystem by 2025, the program is helping indie developers turn their passion into sustainable businesses. What’s the magic sauce? As Matt puts it: “We’re showing them how to position themselves on the global stage. It’s about turning a GarageBand mentality into scalable companies.” Listen now to hear more about Alberta’s big leap into gaming innovation: https://bit.ly/3Pa6885
