This year’s Canadian impact report highlights how our Canadian teams continued to improve our in-game and real-life worlds for the benefit of our players, our communities, and our ecosystem.
“As we celebrate the milestones and achievements of the past year, we want to reaffirm our commitment to making a positive difference in the world—one game, one player, one community at a time,” says Leslie Quinton, vice president, Communications, Ubisoft in Canada. “Together, we have the power to inspire, uplift, and transform lives.”
Across our studio communities in Halifax, Montreal, Quebec City, Saguenay, Sherbrooke, Toronto and Winnipeg, our Ubisoft team members have contributed their time, expertise and resources to support over 50 cultural institutions, charities, educational organizations and more.
Highlights include:
- Access to STEM education and training: Our educational initiatives supported nearly 1,200 students from 47 universities and colleges, and connected 193 mentors to share their experiences and advice with aspiring developers.
- Support for local video game ecosystems: We provided financial support and mentorship to assist 40 indie projects across Canada.
- Progress towards inclusivity and sustainability: Our efforts towards gender equality in the workplace earned us a Silver Certification for Women in Governance.
- Responsible innovation in AI: We partnered with McGill University and the Mila Institute to establish a five-year research chair to explore the ethical use of AI.
