For Immediate Release July 2, 2021 Contact: John Stacy, john.stacy@gama.org Dear GAMA members,
We are living a historical moment in GAMA’s 44 years of existence. Thank you for your trust and support.
Today, propelled by the Board of Director’s initiative to embrace our values of inclusivity and acceptance and following our motto: “A game on every table, a table for everyone,” you have expressed your support to invite ALL actors of the game industry to our table -- I thank you for that.
Of the votes, 93% were to accept this bylaw revision proposal – higher than I anticipated. It is extremely encouraging for the future of the association and the industry in general. The outcome of this vote is a great success, but a lot of work us still ahead of us. We will first need to implement and structure the six new voting membership groups (Creators, Media & Events, Production, Publishers, Retailers and Wholesalers) and have each of them elect one Director-At-Large to represent them on the Board of Directors.
I know the road ahead of us is paved with challenges (I am looking at you, inflation on freight costs), but we will tackle them all together as one.
At the eve of Independence Day, I want to wish each and every one of you a wonderful Fourth of July weekend, whether you go enjoy the Great Outdoors, or stay inside to play your favorite games.
Be excellent to each other,
Stephan Brissaud
GAMA President ### The new amended bylaws are available on GAMA’s website at: https://www.gama.org/page/governing-documents
