Leading game companies such as Activision, EA, Eidos, Epic have all set up branches in Shanghai. In recent years local outsourced production providers like Virtuos and Mineloader have also been flourishing. Shanghai is proudly becoming a global outsourcing center. SMIA has established the Shanghai Digital Media Outsourcing Alliance (SDMOA), and issued the Specification for Digital Media Project Outsourcing Service.
