The opening of the Shanghai office represents the first of a series of strategic commitments from Unity Technologies to support the fast-growing number of Chinese developers adopting the Unity development platform. Along with being tasked with growing Unity's mindshare in the world's most populous nation, Unity Technologies China will also investigate specific needs of the area to provide excellent and highly targeted support.
"We've been aggressively expanding Unity into Asia for over a year and opening offices in Shanghai is a big move for us to meet high demand in China," said David Helgason, CEO of Unity Technologies. "Partnerships with key Chinese internet firms, agreements with local software resellers, and opening of the China office are all part of a dedication to support the Chinese development community as intensely as we've supported it in the west."
Demonstrating this dedication, Unity Technologies also revealed strategic partnerships with local Chinese companies to ensure the successful distribution of the Unity Web Player and through it console quality web games. Content delivery network specialists China Cache will ready 12 thousand servers to satisfy the demand for the Unity Web Player to Chinese online communities.

Leading the Shanghai office will be Country Manager Allen Foo, a software industry veteran who, before joining Unity Technologies, spent over a decade at Microsoft as a Director of Business Development and Management in the Asia Pacific region with several years specifically in China.
"We're very pleased to make these announcements face to face with such an enthusiastic group of local developers during the Beijing stop on the Unity Asia Bootcamp Tour," said Allen. "Bringing a part of the Unity development team to Beijing to meet with the local development community is invaluable for our efforts to continuously improve Unity for the Chinese market."
