We are delighted to announce that IGDA Scotland’s 2015 Board of Directors Nominations are now open!
This process is an important way for the members of the organisation to have their say in who is going to run things. It’s also an opportunity to make changes to the chapter’s leadership in ways that represent your interests as a game developer; and finally, they’re also an excellent way to get more involved with the chapter yourself, and help shape our future.
We have 4 seats available on the board and successful candidates will join our current board members; Mark Hastings, Bert McDowell, Alice Rendell and Timea Tabori.
The key dates for the election process are as follows:
- Wednesday 4th November
- Call for nominations opens.
- Friday 13th November
- Nominations close.
- Must be an IGDA member by this date to participate in the vote.
- Monday 16th November
- Distribution of Election Materials to members.
- Monday 23rd November
- Deadline for votes.
- Last Week of November
- New board members to be announced at Annual General Meeting.
- Date and details to follow soon!
