The government has recognised the animation, visual effects, gaming, and comics (AVGC) sector as one of the potential segments for job creation. The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting has set up AVGC promotion task force to realise the potential of the segment which is proposed to submit the first action plan in three months.
Rathore said that Winzo plans to double direct headcount in the company to 300 in the next one-and-a-half years as the platform is venturing into Web 3.0 which will be based on blockchain technology. "We want to collaborate with society to build something for the world instead of directly hiring people. India has become the epicentre of gaming on the global grid by virtue of the quantum of time that is being spent on the games," Rathore said.
