One of the world’s oldest video game companies has big plans for South Africa

30 September 2016

DISCOP today announced the participation of Atari, the company that was the dominant force in household console gaming almost half a century ago.

After remaining dormant since the company’s financial troubles in the early 2000’s, Atari is now on the move again, “bringing its genius to new generations in innovative ways”.

As a result, “Atari will officially unveil their offline and online strategy to conquer television audiences with new cutting edge programming and franchise opportunities” at this year’s DISCOP conference in Johannesburg.

What is DISCOP?

Founded in 1991, the DISCOP Organization plans market programs that help buyers from developing world regions access prime television content and programs at affordable prices.

DISCOP markets are held four times a year, in Dubai, Abidjan, Istanbul and Johannesburg and target B2C content distribution platforms operating primarily in Central and Eastern Europe, North and Sub-Saharan Africa, the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), the Middle East, the Indian Sub-Continent, Oceania and South East Asia.
