<\/a>DMG is proud to announce that BC-based Hinterland Studio Inc. will be the official lead sponsor for Damage Labs Cohort 1 and the Founder Support Fund.<\/p>\nDMG is grateful for the trust Hinterland has placed in the Damage Labs team, and thrilled to see genuine commitment from the leadership at a successful Canadian game studio.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are excited to partner with the DMG team in bringing their vision of supporting marginalized founders to build and grow their own success stories,\u201d Leanne Viola, director of People & Culture at Hinterland said. \u201cWith the lack of representation in the game industry, we believe that there is a real opportunity to have a lasting impact on the conversation of diversity and its positive impact on the future of the medium. Personally, as a visible minority, I am grateful to work on a team where diverse perspectives are shared and celebrated, and where there is a commitment to bringing this conversation into action for others in our community.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hinterland\u2019s sponsorship directly supports marginalized creators founding new game and digital media studios across Canada. In addition to six months of educational workshops, mentorship and peer sessions, studios receive an equity-free grant to help them navigate the first 3-6 months of operation.<\/p>\n
The Damage Labs Founder Support Fund pools community resources to fund new studio ventures led by marginalized and underrepresented founders. Learn more about the Founder Support Fund.<\/p>\n
Damage Labs is part of the Canadian Women\u2019s Foundation Investment Readiness Program, funded by the Government of Canada; and supported by Ontario Creates.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
