2009 - PM Lee cited the digital and interactive media industry as a blossoming industry in Singapore.
Leading players like gaming giant Electronic Arts and Lucasfilm, and other companies from Europe and Japan like Ubisoft and Koei Entertainment have already set up operations here.
The pool of local talent in this industry is also growing to meet this demand, with many polytechnics like Nanyang Polytechnic and institutions offering digital media courses.
That Singapore is still attracting multi-national companies to Singapore is testament to the "Singapore brand name", said PM Lee.
He noted that the brand name gives companies confidence, and "we should never lose this advantage".
