Plan A Games, a mobile gaming investment and analytics studio with roots in California, is making a major impact from right here in The Shop at the CAC. Their newly launched engineering studio in New Orleans places them at the center of the city’s growing tech and digital-media ecosystem — and their work is already contributing to the region’s momentum.

Why New Orleans — and why The Shop?

Plan A Games develops a cutting-edge data platform designed to help mobile game studios understand player behavior, improve performance, and grow revenue. Their move into the Warehouse District situates them among fellow creatives, startups, and investors — an environment that supports both collaboration and rapid scaling.

Driving local talent and opportunity

The team has hit the ground running since opening their New Orleans studio. They’ve already hired two graduates from Tulane’s School of Engineering and are planning to add several more technical roles in the coming years. Their growth model aligns with a larger trend: New Orleans is continuing to rise as a hub for digital media, gaming, and innovation.

What sets Plan A Games apart

• Data-driven expertise: With over 50 years of combined experience in the mobile gaming world, the founders bring deep insight into user acquisition, engagement, and monetization.

• Developer-friendly funding: Plan A offers flexible investment options without requiring co-investment, giving developers the resources they need to scale strategically.

• Cutting-edge analytics: Their proprietary platform is built to help game studios make smarter, faster decisions rooted in real data — and the engineering behind that platform is happening right here at The Shop.

• Ecosystem building: By choosing New Orleans for its engineering hub, Plan A supports the city’s trajectory as a destination for high-skill tech careers.

The Work They’re Doing Here Matters

From building advanced analytics tools to growing a high-skill engineering team, Plan A Games represents the kind of forward-thinking, creator-driven company that strengthens the fabric of The Shop community. Their presence highlights how the Warehouse District is becoming home to more companies shaping the future of technology, gaming, and digital creativity.

We’re proud to have Plan A Games building and innovating under our roof — and we can’t wait to see what they develop next.
