Savvy Games Group and NEOM came together to streamline the journey of Saudi gaming startups from incubation to acceleration. This joint initiative aims to strengthen the Kingdomโs end-to-end gaming ecosystem and advance the goals of the National Gaming and Esports Strategy under Saudi Vision 2030.
Together, both Savvyโs Nine66 Incubator Program and NEOMโs โLevel Upโ Accelerator ensure that startups graduating from Savvyโs Incubator have the training, resources and support required to progress efficiently into NEOMโs Accelerator. This Savvy-NEOM collaboration builds upon the rapid evolution of both programs and shall ultimately support a stronger pipeline of investable gaming studios.
Savvyโs Nine66 Incubator Program has helped early-stage studios validate prototypes, build foundational capabilities, and prepare for investor engagement. Through this initiative, Savvy aims to help startups achieve readiness to move into the subsequent stages of development and scaling.
NEOMโs Level Up Accelerator provides funding and mentorship to scale incubated studios into self-sustaining businesses. Since 2023, it has grown into a multiphase platform supporting more than 45 Saudi startups, deploying 15 investments, and achieving a 100% survival rate within its portfolio โ outperforming many global benchmarks. With 17 international partners offering publishing and support, Level Up has enabled more than 170 jobs and facilitated a historic milestone: the Kingdomโs first international publishing deal for a domestic gaming start-up โ signed between Fahy Studio and UK-based publisher Kwalee.
Amr Sager, Group Chief of Staff at Savvy Games Group, said: โAs the games industry continues to grow at a rapid pace in Saudi Arabia, there is an increasing number of programs and initiatives designed to help emerging studios and entrepreneurs to build, run, and scale their businesses. This momentum is encouraging, and the next step would be to create stronger synergy and alignment across these efforts, so that the journey is smoother and clearer for startups to identify and source the support they need. This is what our partnership with NEOM is really about, and we look forward to working with the team to continue empowering Saudi studios and game makers.โ
Toby Evan-Jones, Executive Director and Head of Gaming at NEOM, said:ย โNEOM Gaming is proud to play a role in nurturing the Kingdomโs gaming ecosystem, in line with the National Gaming and Esports Strategy. From sparking interest within high schools, to investing into young gaming studios via the Level Up accelerator,ย itโs immensely satisfying to see the green shoots of a viable self-sustaining industry appear. We share a joint view, with Savvy Games Group, that increasing coordination around the startup journey shallย benefit all parties,ย not least the young game makers which we support. We couldnโt be more excited about this alignment.โ
