Québec grants $40,000 to Montréal’s international video-game summit

The Québec government awarded $40,000 to the Montréal International Gaming Summit, a business-to-business gathering for the video-game industry held November 10 and 11.

The province announced the contribution November 10 through the Fonds signature métropole. The summit brought developers, publishers, investors and other industry professionals together for conferences and networking.

Québec described the event as Canada’s oldest and largest business-focused conference dedicated to video games. The funding was presented as support for Montréal’s creative and technology ecosystem.

The announcement identifies the public contribution but does not provide an independent assessment of the event’s attendance or economic impact. The summit has now concluded; the funding should not be read as notice of a future public festival.
