At the recent panel ‘Women in the Gaming Industry: Strategies and Opportunities to Conquer the LATAM Market” at SBC Miami, I had the honor to participate with a presentation on “Effective Marketing and Advertising: Learn How to Effectively Reach Your Target Audience’. This topic is crucial in an industry as dynamic as gaming, where understanding our audience and adapting strategies to their needs is key to success in the LATAM market.
I would like to share some thoughts on women’s associations in the gaming industry and why they are fundamental in providing support, visibility, and a platform for collaboration and development.
1. Empowerment and Market Visibility
Women’s gaming associations serve as platforms for empowerment. Through these associations, professionals can develop a network of contacts, access resources for professional growth, and receive the support necessary to achieve leadership roles.
As we saw at the SBC Miami panel, participants noted that having women at the top not only benefits the company in terms of diversity, but also inspires new generations to pursue careers in gaming.
2. Develop a support and mentoring network
Associations are also an invaluable source of support and mentoring. For women entering or advancing in the games industry, having access to female mentors who have traveled a similar path can be inspiring and motivating. Mentoring not only helps develop technical and leadership skills, but also provides emotional support.
3. Create a more inclusive and diverse industry
SBC Miami panelists highlighted how inclusion not only drives innovation, but also strengthens the industry to meet future challenges. With increased competition and ever-changing consumer demands, companies that embrace diversity and inclusion are better positioned to adapt and grow.
4. Promoting equal pay and working conditions
This was another key point discussed at the SBC Miami panel, which emphasized the importance of transparency and corporate commitment to closing the pay gap. By working together, women’s organizations are making these conversations relevant and driving policy change at the organizational and governmental levels in the region.
I would like to thank International Gaming Women for inviting me to participate in SBC Miami. It was an absolute honor to share my experience and knowledge on the panel “Women in the Gaming Industry: Strategies and Opportunities to Conquer the LATAM Market” with incredible professionals who are driving change in our industry. This opportunity not only allowed us to highlight the importance of women in gaming, but also to strengthen connections and learning around marketing and promotional strategies for market growth in LATAM.
