What we do

Support Game Developers

Our main objectives are the growth and promotion of the Austrian games industry. By initiating projects and activities to support business, education, diversity and visibility, we work to improve the conditions to making games in Austria. 

Connect the Industry

We strengthen the connection between industry professionals, educational institutions, as well as players from other sectors. We build international partnerships with game companies and other associations, and strengthen those ties as a member of the European Games Developer Federation (EGDF).

Industry Research

The PGDA monitors the activity and development of the Austrian games industry by publishing an biennial Industry Report with an overview of the facts & figures of the Austrian game development scene.

Represent the Industry

The PGDA represents and protects the interests of Austrian game developers. By acting as the voice of the Austrian game development industry towards partners, media, policy makers and government bodies, both nationally and internationally, we make game development visible to the public.
