Kongregate opens international office in Montreal to target indies

Kongregate has built a big business over the years as a web, mobile, and PC game publisher. And now it is adding a new office in Montreal. That tells you that the Canadians are doing a good job picking off the American game companies as they are expanding overseas or moving their jobs to low-cost regions. I wouldn’t call it an exodus of game companies to Canada, but as gaming continues its global expansion, Montreal stands out as a hub for both triple-A and indie development.

San Francisco-based Kongregate is hiring for Montreal positions such as senior marketing manager, product manager, and publishing producer.
