Welcome

Welcome! Please click around to learn more about the Massachusetts Digital Games Institute (MassDiGI). We’re a statewide center, designated by the Commonwealth, for academic cooperation, economic development and job creation across the Massachusetts digital and video games ecosystem.

Founded in 2011 and based at Becker College, MassDiGI is the result of creative collaboration among academia, state government and industry, aimed at fostering the growth of the game industry and innovation economy in Massachusetts.

 

  • What people are saying…

    Massachusetts is not only one of the largest digital games clusters in the United States, representing a $2 billion industry and employing approximately 4,000 people across the state, but we are also home to strong academic institutions focused on digital game design and development,” said Lieutenant Governor Murray. This presents a real opportunity for MassDiGI to promote collaboration between academia and industry, nurture existing and new talent, and strengthen the industry’s growing presence in the Commonwealth. We’re excited about the partnerships already underway and the future collaborations this new institute will foster. — Timothy P. Murray, Lieutenant Governor

    Not only did the MassDiGI Game Challenge bring together students and game developers to make games, but MassDiGI also provided numerous educational sessions drawing insights from executives in the Boston area and beyond all lending a fresh perspective on game development. It was a pleasure to participate as a mentor / speaker and to interact with such an enthusiastic group of students, who I was glad to see walk away with actionable goals and a concept to pitch to potential investors. — Elliott Mitchell (Technical Director at Infared5 and Co-Founder of Boston Unity Group)
