Story x Story #166: Empowering Up To Season 6! (Video Games)

As we prepare to return for Season 6 of Story x Story, we continue our series on video games with this special conversation about diversity in the industry. Nigel talks to Dom Shaw, EDI (Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion) Coordinator at Ukie, and Liz Prince, Business Manager at Amiqus, about the journey of developing the newly launched Empower Up website. This collaboration between Ukie’s #RaiseTheGame initiative and the specialist games recruitment agency aims to be a toolkit and guide for employers of all sizes to improve their diversity and inclusion efforts as we work towards an industry that continues to involve diverse perspectives and experiences in the process of making and selling its games. Enjoy this Behind The Story look at the motivation behind the website, and check out our own "Do I Look Like A Gamer?" campaign for more positive representation in video games.
