Salone Sehgal On Building Games In India For The World At India Gaming Conference 2021

By 2021, India was already among the world's top five mobile gaming markets, with consumer adoption accelerated by the pandemic and monetisation opportunities growing.

The third edition of the India Gaming Conference, hosted virtually by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) in partnership with the Indian Digital Gaming Society (IDGS), ran under the theme Gaming for Good: Build in India, Build for the World. Salone Sehgal, Founder and Managing Partner of Lumikai, joins a panel with representatives from Krafton, Play Ventures, Nexus Ventures and KPMG.

The panel looks at the Indian gaming industry from an investor's perspective, from the opportunity for Indian studios, developers and publishers to build games for global audiences, to the role foreign studios can play in fostering innovation, and the regulatory uncertainty the sector still had to navigate.

If you want to see how investors read Indian gaming at a turning point, this panel captures the moment.

Press play for the view from 2021.
