How is the Gaming Industry Addressing  Gender Inequality?
TIG's Take in this Month's GGB Magazine 

From the record-breaking number of women in Congress to celebrity-driven movements in Hollywood, it's clear that women are vying for change in all industries, including gaming. But for an industry that has been plagued by these issues throughout its modern history, we can only trace awareness of gender inequality in gaming for just over a decade. In the July issue of Global Gaming Business magazine, our team examines the current landscape for women in gaming. Learn how the industry ranks on inclusion against corporate America, how women of the industry have taken matters into their own hands, how academia is exploring the issue, and why gaming has an opportunity to lead on one of the most permeating issues in the world today.  Read the full article here.
