We are now celebrating the conclusion of the first year of the IGDA’s Regional Coordinators and SIG Coordinators programs.

IGDA Chapters, SIGs, and their leaders allow all of our IGDA communities to support and empower game developers around the world. These programs were designed to increase the support resources available to its over 600 Chapter and SIG leaders around the world and to provide insights on how to even better uplift developers within their communities.

Kot (Belarus), Larry Kuperman (US), Branden Middendorf (US), Kenji Ono (Japan), Vesa Raudasoja (Finland), Carlos Reyes (Colombia), and James Seetal (US).

And to celebrate our 2020 SIG Coordinators, Alexander Bevier (US), Christopher Lautenbacher (US), Natasha Skult (Finland), and Jess Zammit (Australia).

For 2021, we would like to welcome the both new and returning Regional Coordinators: Khaya Ahmed (Pakistan), Houssem Ben Amor (Tunisia), Gwen Foster (Philippines), Dylan Gedig (Canada), Branden Middendorf (US), Kenji Ono (Japan), Vesa Raudasoja (Finland), Adam Moore (US), Carlos Reyes (Colombia), and James Seetal (US).
