By October 30, 2012 Press Releases

The TIGA Games IndustryAwards have welcomed the support of Blackberry and Train2Game as sponsors for
the 2012 awards. Both organisations share with TIGA a commitment to strengthen
the UK games industry and to enable developers and digital publishers to
achieve their potential.  

Volker Hirsch, Global
Head of Business Development, RIMM said: 
“To partner with the
leading industry organization to highlight excellence in gaming is an honour!
It is, however, also the most natural move: BlackBerry's new BlackBerry 10
platform sets new standards for mobile games: it is easy to use, powerful and
shows off the best in games – just as the TIGA Awards do!”

Mike Head, Train2Game
said: 
“Train2Game is very proud
of its close association with such a forward thinking and dynamic organisation
which has won Trade Association of the Year for the past two years. It remains
the industry spearhead in all respects and having recently successfully
negotiated tax breaks for the industry stands out as the only organisation that
truly represents the best interests of the industry as a whole.
