Dutch Game Garden will close its doors since January 2025.
The group behind the long-running incubator and cluster organisation for Netherlands-based designers associated the choice to “modifications in chances and focus for public financing.”
[This] makes it no longer possible to understand a well balanced spending plan that enables the extension of activities in an accountable way,” the group composed.
Over the previous 17 years, Dutch Game Garden's incubation program has actually supported more than 130 designers, while over 150 business have actually had a workplace within the organisation's cluster.
Any upcoming activities, such as the group's series of network lunches, will continue as prepared in the coming months before operations unwind at the end of the year.
“It is with a heaviness of heart that we have actually needed to make this choice,” stated chairman of the board Peter Laanen.
“We take pride in what we have actually attained over the previous 17 years and the impact that our efforts have actually had on the Dutch video games market. We are now required to close our doors, however we look back with complete satisfaction on whatever we have actually achieved together.”
