Our Story

To shape the future of global gaming education

How It Started

At a time when gaming enthusiasts didn’t have many Indian educational institutes to turn to, Backstage Pass Institute of Gaming rose as a beacon of hope. With a single motto to revolutionize the world of gaming in the country and transform this form of entertainment into a full-fledged source of earning, Backstage Pass has championed quality gaming education at an affordable price.

The institute has welcomed students from all over the country, belonging to diverse backgrounds, possessing unique mindsets, and has united them through their singular passion for gaming and making games.

Vision

What started as Mr. Surya's simple vision has evolved into a thriving academic and professional ecosystem, bringing together a diverse gaming community of students, alumni, and industry experts.

Over the years, our graduates have joined some of the largest game studios, contributed to the development of innovative and acclaimed titles, and earned recognition for their creative and technical excellence.

These achievements reflect the enduring spirit and high standards of our institution. If you're motivated to shape the future of game development, we welcome you to embark on this journey with us.
