MIAMI—With the first-ever eMerge Americas conference underway in South Beach, the tech world is looking at Miami—and some industry players are setting up shop here. Shiver Entertainment, a new video game development firm led by industry veteran and former Zynga and Electronic Arts (EA) COO John Schappert, has leased 16,000 square feet on the second floor of The Offices at Sunset Place, which is jointly owned by Simon Property Group and Institutional Mall Investors.
