Dedicated
to the development of a new digital media
sector in the Baton Rouge area,
the consortium aggressively seeks existing
companies to build satellites, new offices
or headquarters in the capital of Louisiana,
and works with entrepreneurs to help create
competitive start-ups in the animation, video
games, and the visual effects industries.
Louisiana is one of only two states
to offer Digital Media Tax Incentives. Our
state is also the most aggressive. In addition,
Louisiana has long-standing expertise in
the entertainment industry, having been
the number one state for film production
outside of California and New York, thanks
to the state’s pioneering efforts
in motion picture incentives. The City
of Baton Rouge has been aggressively pursuing
|
the
entertainment industry, and is particularly
interested in attracting and creating digital
media companies. Baton Rouge is home to two
of the state’s top universities, including
the state flagship, Louisiana State University,
as well as Southern University, one of the
nation’s leading historically black colleges.
We welcome you to visit Baton Rouge, and
hope that you will give us the opportunity
to show you what the capital of Louisiana
can offer you and your company. Please explore
our website, and feel free to contact us
with any questions.
