Lis Welsh backs MCV Top 100 Women in Games & Women of the Year Awards

Lis Welsh Search and Selection has signed up as a sponsor for MCV’s Top 100 Women in Games Brit List and the Women of the Year Awards.

The company has pledged its support as event partner for February’s Women of the Year Awards.

I am so glad that, finally, there is going to be recognition for some of the leading women in the games industry,” said Lis Welsh, MD of Lis Welsh Search and Selection.

As we’ve grown as an industry we’ve seen amazing women do amazing things across various sectors, from marketing to HR through to development and design. It’s no longer the male dominated club that it was back in the early years, and I’m so proud that I’ve been here to witness the growth, not only of digital home entertainment, but also of a new breed of women who can rightfully hold their own with some of the most influential male execs in this business.

"Becoming a sponsor is a natural link up between the things that we do at LWS&S, and the ethos of the awards. I’m really proud to be involved.”

Lis Welsh joins OPM Recruitment and Green Man Gaming as event partners.

The Top 100 Women in Games Brit List will be published in the January 30th issue of MCV, while the Women of the Year Awards event will take place on February 19th at the Ham Yard Hotel.
