It’s no secret that Enjin loves Korea. From our Korean Team to our presence at key industry events in South Korea — such as Unite Seoul, Busan Indie Connect (BIC) Festival, and the Global Blockchain Policy Conference — we remain committed to advancing the adoption of blockchain technology in Korea and across the world.

We’re excited to take another step toward achieving this goal by partnering with the Korea Mobile Game Association (KMGA) and Korea Blockchain Contents Association (KBCA).

To boost cooperation and promote development of South Korea’s blockchain game industry, Enjin has signed a three-party MOU with KMGA and KBCA. The agreement outlines cooperative measures to be executed by Enjin, KMGA, and KBCA, including:

Promoting Enjin as a leading blockchain game development platform within South Korea’s gaming and blockchain industry

Identifying and securing potential adopters to utilize Enjin’s platform

Providing business support to cement Enjin’s place as a leading blockchain business platform

Creating event, seminar, and networking opportunities

As all parties work together on these items and further opportunities to boost Korea’s game industry, we believe it’s only a matter of time before Enjin’s robust suite of blockchain game development tools becomes widely used in South Korea.

The era of blockchain game is very, very near!

About KMGA

The Korea Mobile Game Association is a leading association and non-profit organization which aims to promote sustainable growth for small to mid-sized indie game developers. With nearly 800 gaming companies forming its membership base, KMGA is the country’s largest game association in terms of membership.

KMGA was originally founded to strengthen competitiveness and foster the mobile game industry through facilitating exchange, initiating joint projects, protecting the rights and interests of member companies, and supporting government and government-related institutional policies.

For the past three years, KMGA has also co-hosted BIC Festival, a leading indie game conference which drew nearly 300 indie game studios and 20,000 attendees in 2018. Enjin was proud to sponsor BIC this year, where we also introduced “Bicco,” a limited-edition Korea-themed ERC-1155 collectible souvenir.

KMGA is taking the lead in enhancing the games industry ecosystem by actively engaging in various activities, such as legislative seminars and diverse global exhibitions and conferences, as well as hosting educational sessions to establish governance and networking. KMGA has also signed MOUs with a number of relevant agencies and businesses, including Xiaomi and One Store.

Enjin partner Unity Technologies is also an executive member of the KMGA, and Enjin’s Blockchain SDK for Unity is slated for release in the near future.

KMGA has raised nearly 1 billion Korean Won in private funds to provide support for game companies and works closely with government agencies to provide a fair-level playing field for game developers in South Korea.

We’re very excited for this collaboration and believe KMGA’s existing network and role in the game and blockchain industries will help take Enjin’s presence in South Korea to the next level, while advancing our overall goal — mass adoption of blockchain technology.
