NMM: Manitoba Renews and Enhances Interactive Digital Media Tax Credit

The Manitoba Interactive Digital Media Tax Credit (MIDMTC) just received a significant boost in the recently announced 2013 provincial budget.

Corrections to the tax credit have been a key priority for us over the past two years and Tuesday's 2013 budget announcement translates into a significant achievement for the New Media community in Manitoba.
