DISCOP today announced the participation of Atari,<\/strong> the company that was the dominant force in household console gaming almost half a century ago.<\/p>\n

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”.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

What is DISCOP?<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n
