PlayGiga (“PG”) enables users to play premium videogames on PC / Mac or TV through an affordable monthly subscription. PG makes premium videogames accessible to everyone. Premium videogaming usually requires a PC with expensive superior graphics capabilities or a costly gaming console. Moreover, current pricing of videogames (€20-60 per game) limits the number of new titles gamers can afford each year, thus making videogaming a pretty expensive hobby. PG allows gamers play a wide selection of premium games from anywhere on their PC/MAC or TV for a low monthly fee. We believe that similarly to what happened with Netflix for TV or Spotify for music, the videogames industry will evolve towards a streaming model where users will not need to buy a specific hardware and will enjoy a curated catalogue of games under a subscription model. B2B Clients: TIM: TIM games (cloud gaming solution developed by PlayGiga) was released in September 2017. Telecom Italia is the main ICT group and the technology partner of Italy to embrace digital. Abroad its strength is Brazil, where TIM Brasil, is a major player on the market. Turner: GLOUD games (cloud gaming solution developed by PlayGiga) was released in December 2017. Turner International is a Time Warner company that operates more than 180 channels (CNN, TNT, Cartoon Network, Boomerang and TCM Turner Classic Movies). Turner showcases 43 brands in 34 languages in over 200 countries. Founded in 2013, PG has developed superior technology based on cloud virtualisation that optimizes latency while reducing the OPEX & CAPEX required to serve customers a premium experience in real time. PG has advantageous licensing deals with top games publishers, resulting in a high-quality catalogue of available games and has live deployments in Spain, Italy, Argentina, and Chile.
