Diversity
Our commitment
Promoting women in the video games industry
We recognize the vital role of women in video game development, and that gender equality needs to be accelerated to achieve sustainable development. It is our belief that having more women in our company and the video games industry would lead to more diverse skillsets, perspectives, and the creation of even better games. To help make gender equity a lasting reality in the industry, we contribute to concerted efforts as a Women in Games Corporate Ambassador and founding donor to Women in Animation’s Global Fund.
Fostering diversity and equality among our employees
We believe that diversity adds flair to our workplace and culture. As an equal opportunity employer, we are committed to helping our talent thrive and grow to their fullest potential. Starting with gender diversity, we are targeting to have women make up 40% of our senior management and total workforce globally by 2025.

Developing talent as diverse as the world around us
At Virtuos, diversity and equality remain a top priority for us as we continue to grow. Our gender diversity approach is built upon three pillars of promote, recruit, retain and empower – brought to life through key initiatives such as below.
Promote
To drive gender inclusivity and inspire more women to join the games industry, we actively partner with organizations such as Women in Games and Women in Animation. We also regularly participate in career fairs to connect with the local community, share insights into life in game development, and encourage networking and professional growth.
Recruit
We promote the education and empowerment of aspiring female game development talent through different events, workshops, and scholarships. Some of these initiatives includes regular studio tours and college outreach to challenge gender stereotypes and promote potential career paths. Internally, our hiring managers and executives go through unconscious bias training to mitigate the impact of implicit bias and uphold fair, equal opportunities for all candidates
Retain and Empower
To ensure that our female colleagues feel supported, valued, and empowered at Virtuos, we strive to create a safe and conducive working environment. We hold regular knowledge sharing and networking sessions to encourage team members to communicate and collaborate across departments and studios. Some initiatives include our #ChooseToChallenge interview series in celebration of International Womens’ Day and “Empowering moms in gaming” networking sessions on Mother’s Day.
Our human resources policy is also designed to ensure equal access to employment, learning, and development opportunities, as well as fair pay for equal skills and performance.
Employee diversity breakdown
As an equal opportunity employer, Virtuos has grown sustainably over the years. We have over 4,000 employees worldwide, of which 30% are women. We continue to strive towards our target of a 40% women workforce and senior management by 2025.
