#TechTuesday: African Gaming Industry (Opeola Fopefoluwa) | Breakfast Central | News Central TV

The video game industry has benefited largely from the extensive acceptance of smart device gaming applications. Over the past five years, there has been a shift from physical distribution to digital distribution in the market, based on demand.

According to available statistics, Africa represents only 1% of the video game market and the continent is yet to gainfully explore this opportunity.

Joining me this morning is Opeola Fopefoluwa who is a trained architect, co-founder & CTO (Chief Technical Officer) at Life machines, a Nigerian based PC-build & online computer component retailer.

Questions or points of discussion:

1. Tell us about Life Machines, it’s a very interesting name I must say
2. How did you get into PC building because you’re a trained architect?
3. Tell us more about the process of building a PC and what does it mean to build a PC for creatives?
4. How do you craft computers to optimize one’s workflow?
5. How long does it take to assemble each system?
6. Let’s talk more about gaming in Africa – we only represent 1% of the video game market, will this be changing in the near future?
7. How can we change this to at least 10 or 20% of the global market?
8. Where do you draw inspiration from?
9. Your company does e-sport, please tell us more about this?
10. What is the future for Life Machines?

Olisa: Thank you Opeola for sharing with us what you guys do at Life Machines and we wish you all the best with creating gaming facilities that will put Africa on the map. We’ll take a short break and we’ll return right afterwards. Stay with us.
