TIGA's members include independent games developers, in-house publisher-owned developers, outsourcing companies, technology businesses and universities (including Goldsmiths).

TIGA's vision is to make the UK the best place in the world to do games business. We do this through Government lobbying and maintain a voice in the corridors of power at both the Westminister and Scottish parliaments.
