 Rabobank Utrecht believes gaming as an industry is evolving and becoming more and more serious. Therefore, it is important that we, as a bank, also approach this industry in a serious way. Rabobank Utrecht is involved in the gaming industry not only as an advisor, but also as a builder of bridges such as, for example, Startimpuls Utrecht, in which the banks participates. Entrepeneurs in the technology industry, including the games industry receive support from Startimpuls Utrecht. Furthermore, Rabobank Utrecht sponsors the NLGD Game Development Rally.
Robert Lommers, new media consultant: "We are open to innovation. Gaming is undeniably an innovative industry. And therefore the Rabobank is involved. " More information about the activities of Rabobank in Utrecht can be found on http://www.raboblog.nl/

The Dutch Game Garden
wants to accelerate the growth of the Dutch game industry both
nationally and internationally and provides wide-ranging support for
starting and established game developers that are located in the
Netherlands.
How do we do this?
Through our Game Development Club
we stimulate students of the various game design, media, arts and
programming courses at the universities and schools in the Netherlands
to collaborate together on joint projects. We provide them with places
to work, tools and software, but we also set-up international
competitions for them to enter, events and organize all kinds of
activities.
Through our Game Incubator
we help young entrepreneurs with setting up their game development
studios or game related businesses. We provide training in
entrepreneurship and coaching. We help with housing, tools and a
network of technical, financial and legal experts. Basically we can
assist in everything game companies need. Through the large
international network of Dutch Game Garden we can also help in doing
business internationally.
In our Game Development Business Centers
we provide top-class facilities for existing and growing game companies
in the Netherlands with the aim of creating true gaming hotspots with
access to other important companies, world class research institutes,
universities and schools.
