Jason Kingsley, co-founder of the British video games studio Rebellion, has been made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire in the Queen's Birthday Honours List for services to the economy.
The honour comes at a pivotal time for his industry, which is gearing up for the next generation of video games consoles while facing disruption from a shift to digital downloads, as well as the rise of smartphones and tablets and the emergence of crowdsourced funding as an alternative source of investment.
To mark the occasion, the BBC invited Mr Kingsley to outline the challenges ahead as he saw them.
