Over the next 6 to 12 months, they’ll receive tailored mentorship from industry veterans and KRAFTON’s global teams along with technical support, financial assistance, and industry exposure to hone their craft and elevate India’s gaming scene, and are likely to spearhead efforts in India to further develop Asia’s third-largest economy as a leading gaming landscape globally.
