In a newly announced collaboration, Xsolla and HP are bringing together Xsolla's Accelerator program and HP's Gaming Garage. The goal is to reach over 100,000 students and young creatives worldwide.
Xsolla and HP have planned the first pilot programs of their joint initiative in Saudi Arabia, Azerbaijan, and the United Arab Emirates. By aligning education and industry infrastructure, the aim is to make it easier for talented individuals to enter the industry by bridging the gap between learning and starting a business.
"Together with HP, we’re building more than an alliance; we’re creating a foundation for the next generation of developers," said Justin Berenbaum, SVP, Global Industry Relations & Funding at Xsolla. "From education to incubation to investment, this union connects every stage of a developer’s journey and brings new opportunities to creators in every corner of the world."
Specifically, both partners are combining elements from Xsolla's Accelerator Program with HP's Gaming Garage Learning platform. There are four key areas for driving growth and opportunities: Integrated Learning Frameworks, Accelerator and Incubator Pathways, Innovation and Collaboration Initiatives and Access to HP Gaming Garage Resources
"Teaming up with Xsolla allows us to fulfill our shared goal of shaping the future gaming ecosystem by providing accessible and impactful learning opportunities," said Mayank Dhingra, Director and Global Head Education Business and Strategy, HP. "By assimilating HP’s Gaming Garage learning platform with Xsolla’s Accelerator and Curine Academy programs, we will deliver a comprehensive pathway for aspiring developers and provide essential resources to prepare them to be future-ready and transform their ideas into real-world achievements."
