“At VGW, we recognise that gender balance is critical in our teams and we want to empower females and provide them with pathways to pursue a career in the tech industry. It’s also important that we provide ongoing educational support to allow our women to continue to thrive in the workplace,” – Chief People Officer, Yvette Mandanas.

VGW formed strategic partnerships with both She Codes and Project F in 2022 to support their expansion in Australia and address their diversity metrics and talent acquisition pathways.

Active in the women in tech community, VGW is also proud to sponsor the WITWA (Women In Technology Western Australia) awards and support the Female Coders Collective, while also sponsoring Hackathons at Curtin University.

While data in the gaming sector shows player demographies to be almost equally split by gender, the people building the technology don’t reflect the same story.
