Goals and expectations
The main goal for this event is to create contact between computer game developers in Iran and international publishing companies.
The game industry in Iran has more than a decade's worth of experience and has created hundreds of fascinating games, yet it has never had an opportunity to enter the international market. It is TGC's intention to create this opportunity for the first time for Iranian game developers.[2]
The community of game developers in Iran is large and active. At TGC, these companies, can finally, by coming to Iran and seeing up close the talents and potentials of Iranian game developers and the Iranian games market, introduce even more growth to the games industry in this country.[3]
