Abu Dhabi and Tamatem Games Partner to Create a Booming Gaming Ecosystem

By collaborating with Tamatem Games, a pioneer in the Arabic mobile game publishing industry, the Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO) is making tremendous progress. With this partnership, Tamatem Games moves its headquarters to Abu Dhabi, which is a significant improvement for the gaming industry in the emirate and indicates an exciting future for the company. Abu Dhabi’s gaming industry is thriving, with over 70 content providers, mostly due to ADIO’s commitment to innovation and strategic alliances, one of which is with Ubisoft.

ADIO’s mission extends beyond simple migration; it also involves providing all-encompassing assistance for growth, from setup to establishing vital ecosystems and global trade links. The Director General of ADIO, Badr Al-Olama, emphasised Abu Dhabi’s status as a thriving centre for tech and design talent, bolstered by first-rate ICT infrastructure and a dynamic talent pool. Because of this, the city is a great place for the gaming industry to grow, from development to publication.

Abu Dhabi’s goal and Tamatem Games’ emphasis on locally relevant and culturally relevant Arabic games are a wonderful match. Their partnership with ADIO is well-positioned to initiate a fresh phase of expansion, using Abu Dhabi’s vibrant environment and dedication to fostering talent. The establishment of a Centre of Excellence by Tamatem in Abu Dhabi highlights the area’s potential as a major hub for e-gaming.

With intentions to hire over 40 gaming professionals and work with nearby colleges to provide internship and training programmes, the venture also promises employment prospects. This action is viewed as an attempt to bolster Abu Dhabi’s standing in the international gaming scene as well as a major boost to the local gaming community.

With the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt predicted to contribute more than $3 billion by 2025, MENA’s gaming earnings are predicted to reach $6 billion by 2027. This cooperation coincides with this forecast. It is evidence of Abu Dhabi’s strategic orientation, dedication to fostering the expansion of the gaming sector, and provision of culturally appropriate gaming experiences.
