Calling all IDM companies in British Columbia! Don’t miss out on the opportunity to participate in this Canadian IDM Industry Profile Survey!

DigiBC, ESAC and CIAIC have been working on this project which will be the first-ever full snapshot of BC’s IDM sector, and of Canada’s in 11 years. Nordicity, who works on our IDMTC reports that we share with the Ministry of Finance, is the firm conducting the study.

We need your valuable input to create a comprehensive profile that will shape the future of the IDM industry in Canada. This will help us in our continued advocacy with the provincial government, as well as new advocacy on the federal level. This data is also essential to our work in representing industry interests locally and abroad, and it assists with identifying the economic impact the industry has in Canada.

The questionnaire is streamlined and easy to fill out, and should take about 20 minutes to complete. It is open to companies of all sizes making:

  • Video Games
  • Interactive and Immersive Storytelling and Experiences, or
  • Interactive Educational Content

If you haven’t yet already, please participate in this survey as it is key to helping us create an accurate snapshot of BC’s IDM sector. We appreciate your contribution to this nationwide endeavour! 🙏
