Not-for-profit organisation founded by activists for women in games and esports - shaping the future of games & the creative industry. https://linktr.ee/womeningames_wig

Here’s another exciting announcement for y’all! I’ve been selected as a @womeningames.bsky.social ambassador and creator 🌺 Holding space for women and fems — especially those who are marginalized — is crucial to my brand as a creator and I can’t wait to take my work even further with WIG.

Her brown hair is styled in her natural waves and they’re wearing a strappy black midi dress with delicate rhinestoned stripes.A plain beige background with a beige and teal checked circle framing the Women In Games Creator Circle logo. In the center of the circle are simple black drawings of a long-haired woman wearing headphones in front of a stand microphone and a controller below. Encircling these are the words “Women In Games” above and “Creator Circle” below. The red W logo for Women In Games is on either side of this.

Why do organisations become Women in Games Ambassadors? Because they want to do more than talk about inclusion. As Playstack celebrates its tenth anniversary, it chose to turn a long-held internal commitment into a public one. ⬇️
