At first glance, the Lyon cluster was also built based on the presence of a historic company, Infogrames. Infogrames was created in 1983 in Lyon to operate in the video game industry, with development, publishing and distribution activities. It grew rapidly, and embarked on an acquisition policy in the mid-1990s. In 2009, Infogrames took the name of Atari, a brand that the company recovered with the purchase of Hasbro. In 2013, the difficulty in bringing in investors led the company to default. The structuring of the video game industry in Lyon into a cluster took place in three stages. The Lyon Infocité-Lyon Game association was created in 1996 to bring together, in two clusters, players in information technology and digital entertainment. It is supported by the city of Lyon, the Rhône-Alpes region and the Rhône department. This organisation is a pioneer in France. In 2004, the association represented 215 members, 5,500 jobs and 4.5 billion in cumulative sales.
