2017 IGDA Board of Directors Election Results

27 Feb 2017

The 2017 IGDA Board of Directors election has concluded and the results were certified by the Board of Directors. Congratulations to our newest Board members, Renee Gittins (US) and Lucien Parsons (US)!

Ten percent of the eligible membership was required to reach quorum for the election and we’re very happy to announce we attained 26% this year! The results of the voting are as follows:

Total Ballots Submitted: 701

Renee Gittins – 515 votes
Lucien Parsons – 255 votes
Hendrik Lesser – 197 votes
Jamison Selby – 188 votes

Thank you to all of these candidates, to everyone who expressed an interest in running, and to those who voted, for contributing to the future of the organization! We’d also like to thank those directors leaving the board for their years of service: Justin Berenbaum and Anne Toole. The new board members will officially begin their terms on 1 April 2017.

Yours in service,
IGDA Board of Directors
