Our approach
Social
Our commitment
We focus on ensuring we are an attractive option for new talent, that we retain and support existing talent, and that we open new pathways into the games industry and support charitable and community initiatives that matter to
our people, clients and partners.
Our successful internal career development programme, Level Up for Seniors, launched externally as Sumo Group Evolve in April 2024.
Making this programme accessible to the wider games industry will help encourage individuals who want to take their first step into a leadership role but have had limited access to learning and development opportunities.
Our flagship internal learning event dedicated to sharing cutting edge knowledge to inspire. SDC brings teams together across specialisms, departments and studios to learn, grow, network and collaborate together.
Our SDCXtra offering includes more opportunities for our people to collaborate, learn and network either in person or virtually.
We reached over 3000 people through our successful collaborations with Ahead Partnership, Women in Games, Limit Break, Code Coven and Moving Ahead, helping to improve the industry pipeline for underrepresented groups in games, helping to up-skill our people from marginalised communities and ensure games development is seen as a viable career option.
Our Inclusion and Belonging committee support Sumo Group in becoming an industry-leading employer in the areas of diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging and justice (DEIBJ) and our employee diversity group, PRISM, promotes inclusion, equity, equality and wellbeing across the Group.
We will reduce the environmental impacts of our operations by becoming Carbon Neutral by 2030 and Carbon Net Zero by 2045. We will use recognised and respected methods to measure our performance and identify sustainable reductions.
We will maintain robust systems and processes to continue building trust with our people, partners and players. We will be accountable for all Governance matters within Sumo's control and will be an industry
leader for all matters relating to IT Security, Legal and regulatory compliance across video game publishing and development.
